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 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.
