Welcome to the web page for Maitreya Dunham's lab. We study genome evolution and copy number variation in yeast using experimental evolution in the chemostat (pictured below) and comparative genomics approaches. We also use yeast as a platform to study the consequences of human genetic variation.

The lab is located in the Department of Genome Sciences at University of Washington in lovely Seattle.

Funding

The Dunham lab is supported by grants from the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health, the Fred Hutch/University of Washington Cancer Consortium, the Astera Fund, an Impetus Grant, and by a gift from Karl Handelsman. Members of the lab are supported by the UW Genome Training Grant and an NIH F32. The Dunham lab is part of the UW Healthy Aging and Longevity Research Institute, the Brotman Baty Institute, and the Pharmacogenomics Research Network. For additional affiliations, please see the bottom of this page.

I'd like to thank the American Society of Brewing Chemists, the Yeast Resource Center, the HHMI Faculty Scholar program, the BEACON Center for the Study of Evolution in Action, the BBI, the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research, the Rita Allen Foundation, March of Dimes, Marian E. Smith Junior Faculty Award, the Royalty Research Fund, the Ruth Kirschstein Fellowship, the UW Aging Training Grant, the Interdisciplinary Training Grant in Cancer, and the UW Commercialization Gap Fund for prior support of me and members of my lab.

COI statement: I am a co-founder of Phase Genomics.
