About the Lab
The Drewell laboratory is in the Biology Department at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. We are located in Room 325 in the Lasry Center for Bioscience on the Clark campus. Our lab applies experimental molecular genomic, mathematical and computational approaches to investigate the regulation of gene expression during embryonic development. Much of our work is focused on using insect model species, including the fruit fly and honey bee. This website contains descriptions of our research projects, links to our publications and an introduction to the lab members.
