About

A. Gregory Matera is a Professor at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. His research focuses on motor neuron disease, histone regulation, and the proteostasis network, as reflected in his recent articles. He is particularly known for his work on the SMN complex and its implications in various neurodegenerative conditions. His contributions also extend to the understanding of innate immune signaling and the genetic manipulation of histone functions in Drosophila models.
