Sarah Bray
Regular biography
Sarah Bray is a Fellow at the University of Cambridge, affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences and the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience. Her research focuses on developmental biology, neurogenesis, cancer, and the Notch signaling pathway. She employs techniques such as live-imaging, genetic, biochemical, and genomic approaches in both Drosophila and human cells to investigate the mechanisms underlying transcriptional responses to Notch signaling. Her work explores how these processes reset and shape cellular responses.
Scholar-generated biography
Prof. Sarah Bray is a Professor of Developmental Biology whose research focuses on developmental biology, gene regulation, and Notch signaling. Her work explores the molecular mechanisms underlying Notch signaling, particularly its role in cell fate determination and tissue patterning. She investigates how Notch signaling interacts with other pathways, such as Frizzled and Su(H), to regulate developmental processes in organisms like Drosophila. Her studies also examine the function of transcription factors such as Elf-1 and Grainyhead in embryogenesis and neurogenesis. Through her research, she contributes to understanding the complexity of Notch signaling in development and disease.
