Dr. Mathews earned her B.S. in Biology from the Pennsylvania State University and a Ph.D. in genetics from Case Western Reserve University. Concurrent with her Ph.D., she earned a master\'s degree in bioethics from Case. She completed a post-doctoral fellowship in genetics at Johns Hopkins, where she continued her work on human genetic variation and human population history. During 2011, Dr. Mathews is working part time as a Senior Policy and Research Analyst on the staff of the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues. Her research interests focus on the intersection of science, public policy and society.<br/>(<a href=\'http://www.bioethicsinstitute.org/mshome/?ID=75\'>Homepage</a>)');return false;"><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2011/a/a1/Debra_mathews.jpg"/>Debra Mathews</a><br/></li>

Takanari then moved to the Bio-X program at Stanford University as a Quantitative Chemical Biology Fellow. His work at Stanford focused on the creation of other novel synthetic biological techniques that could rapidly – and inducibly – manipulate activity of a variety of intracellular signaling molecules. Currently, the Inoue laboratory at Johns Hopkins is investigating positive-feedback mechanisms underlying the initiation of neutrophil chemotaxis (known as symmetry breaking), as well as spatio-temporally compartmentalized signaling of Ras and membrane lipids such as phosphoinositides. Ultimately, Takanari will generate completely orthogonal machinery in cells to achieve existing, as well as novel, cellular functions.<br/>(<a href=\'http://esgweb1.nts.jhu.edu/cellbio/dept/InoueProfile.html\'>Homepage</a>)');return false;"><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2011/8/83/Profile_Inoue.jpg"/>Takanari Inoue</a><br/></li>
