It is made up of many groupings of neurons that carry out specific functions including those necessary for sensation, locomotion, hearing, breathing, and heart rate. The Butts lab utilizes tissue engineering strategies and multi-omic approaches to develop stem cell-derived brainstem in vitro models mimicking native neural development. The Butts lab is directly associated with the Bioengineering Department and Neuroengineering Initiative at Rice University, while also connecting with collaborators within the surrounding Texas Medical Center incuding Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children’s Hospital.  Publications/Creative Works Click here to search for this faculty member's publications on PubMed.  Affiliations  Research Consortia Gulf Coast Cluster for Single Cell Omics  Appointments Title Department / School Institution Assistant Professor Bioengineering Rice University
