-The [http://www.peytonlab.org/ Peyton lab] studies how cells process chemical and physical cues from the extracellular matrix, and how these interactions play a role in disease progression. By creating synthetic microenvironments, we are able to have tight control of cell-matirx interactions, allowing us to better understand how cells use their integrins to bind to matrix, and what downstream signaling pathways this binding sets off.
+The [http://www.peytonlab.org/ Peyton lab] studies how cells process chemical and physical cues from the extracellular matrix and how these interactions play a role the progression of cardiovascular disease and cancer. We aim to understand the downstream signaling pathways activated when cells use their integrins to bind to matrix and how this translates to the disease of interest.
