Biological systems are interacting composite systems at all scales, from macromolecules to cells to communities. Our lab combines experiments and theory to understand how these collectives coordinate and execute their response to environmental conditions.
Small RNA
Small RNAs are abundant post-transcriptional regulators. We study molecular determinants of small RNA function and identify regulatory strategies.

Here is a list of some of our recent publications
STUDENTS OF ALL YEARS, DEGREES, AND DISCIPLINES: IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AND QUANTITATIVE APPROACHES TO BIOLOGY, COME TALK WITH EREL ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES IN OUR LAB !
Positions are available for students from a wide range of backgrounds including physics and biophysics, molecular/cell/evolutionary/systems biology, engineering, and biochemistry. Theorists and experimentalists are both welcome. Interested current and prospective students are encouraged to contact Erel Levine to discuss possibilities
Undergradugte students who would like to spend some time in our lab, pursue a research project, or help us out are particularly welcomed. Please contact Erel Levine to discuss possibilities.
You are also more than welcome to join our monthly discussion group.
Harvard University is an equal opportunity employer and encourages applications from members of under-represented groups.
Experiment: Postdoc positions are available for researchers with a wide variety of backgrounds in the biological sciences, biophysics and bioengineering. Experience with worms is an advantage but not required. Please contact Erel Levine with your CV and interests.
Theory: Postdocs with background in quantitative sciences, who have genuine interest in biological questions, are very welcomed, although our funds are currently limited. Please contact Erel Levine to discuss possibilities.
Erel's office hours are Tuesdays 5-7pm. Please stop by to discuss classes, learn about what we do, and chat about science and life. Students in my classes are welcome always.
