Charlie M. Boone, Professor of University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada. Dr Boone is focused on the development and application of functional genomics techniques to a number of biological problems.He has an open concept lab that is shared with Brenda Andrews and Tim Hughes; this format allows he to work efficiently on a number of collaborative projects.In particular, his project for global mapping of genetic interactions in yeast is carried out as a joint collaboration with the Andrews lab and thus many of the the projects described on this site are collaborative efforts and many of the people work for both labs.He is developing and applying functional genomics approaches for mapping genetic, chemical-genetic, protein-protein interactions using a yeast model system. The ultimate goal is to place all yeast genes and his corresponding products on a functional network.
