Dr. Kyle Daniels is an Assistant Professor of Genetics at Stanford University. Dr. Daniels received a PhD in Biochemistry from Duke University in 2015. Following postdoctoral training at UCSF, he joined the Department of Genetics at Stanford in 2023.
His laboratory interested in understanding how modular domains can be recombined in new combinations and arrangements to give rise to diverse cellular behaviors such as survival, proliferation, differentiation, and tumor killing. The goals of their work are to decode natural signaling systems to understand their functions, and to encode specific instructions in synthetic signaling systems to engineer therapeutic cells. His lab uses synthetic biology, high-throughput library screening, and machine learning to explore how various signaling molecules control cell function.
