Dr.  Charles J Brokaw

Position

Emeritus Professor

Research Description

My work seeks to understand the mechanisms of motility of eukaryotic flagella and cilia. Specifically, I want to understand how the activity of the motor enzymes (dyneins) that cause sliding between the flagellar microtubules is regulated in order to produce particular patterns of bending.
