Michael Marks, PhD, seeks to identify the genetic basis of normal human skin pigment variation, which could offer disease insight.

Dr. Marks investigates the molecular mechanisms underlying the formation of cell type-specific lysosome-related organelles; the assembly, delivery and function of their contents; and how these processes are impacted by genetic diseases.
