Dror Laboratory
About the Lab

The Dror Laboratory studies diabetes through pancreatic islet biology, immune–metabolic communication, inflammation, beta-cell heterogeneity, and epigenetic regulation.

Lab Vision

The lab investigates the pancreatic islet as a living tissue environment shaped by immune cells, metabolic stress, beta-cell function, and long-term regulatory programs.

PI Background

Dr. Erez Dror’s research connects inflammation, insulin secretion, beta-cell heterogeneity, and epigenetic regulation, with training at the University of Basel and the Max Planck Institute.

Research Approach
Inflammation

Studying how inflammatory mediators regulate insulin secretion, beta-cell stress, and metabolic disease.

Beta Cells

Exploring beta-cell heterogeneity, identity, function, and vulnerability in diabetes.

Epigenetics

Investigating chromatin regulation and durable cell-state programs in pancreatic islets.
