Research Focus

Paul Selvin has spent his career developing high-resolution fluorescent techniques to study biological molecules as a biophysicist. Selvin’s recent work has turned to molecular motors—proteins whose job is moving cargoes around the cell. Selvin’s lab is now visualizing single transcription factors going from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, and has looked at the Estrogen Receptor and NF-kB, two important cancer-related proteins.
