The Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, housed in the Carl Icahn Laboratory at Princeton University, was established to innovate in research and teaching at the interface of modern biology and the more quantitative sciences. The Institute is the hub of the Center for Quantitative Biology, funded by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

News Joshua Shaevitz is named a 2009 Pew Scholar 6/16/09 - Joshua Shaevitz, an Assistant Professor of physics and member of the Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics, has been named a 2009 PEW Scholar in the Biomedical Sciences, one of 17 promising early- to mid-career biomedical researchers in the nation to be honored. The grants are awarded by The Pew Charitable Trusts and the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF). Each Scholar will receive $240,000 over four years to undertake research on a biomedical science project of their choosing. Shaevitz's research aims to determine how bacteria use mechanical forces to affect cell shape, motility, chromosome segregation and cytokinesis.

Murphy's research with C. elegans, a hermaphroditic worm, aims to understand the genetic mechanisms controlling the beginning and end of a lifeform's reproductive capability, and could lead to learning how to exert control over it. And a grant from the Keck Foundation supports research into whether cognitive decline with age can be measured in worms by identifying the genes critical for the maintenance of higher neuronal activities, in particular, learning and memory, during aging.
