Welcome to the Buchon lab at Cornell University !

Sample images from ongoing projects in the Buchon lab

We study the genetic and cellular basis of host-microbe interactions, stem cell activity and gut physiology in different models: the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster and suzukii),  the mouse (organoids), and disease vectors (mosquitoes, ticks).

--> We study cell dynamics in the mosquito vector Aedes aegypti

--> ​We use mouse organoids as a tool to study intestinal stem cells in action
