About

Carol Greider is a Professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Her research primarily focuses on telomere biology, including the regulation of telomere length and the mechanisms involved in telomere maintenance. Recent articles highlight her contributions to understanding the genetic factors influencing telomere length and their implications in diseases such as melanoma. She is recognized for her work in both human and Saccharomyces cerevisiae models, contributing valuable insights into chromosome-specific telomere functions.
