Associate Professor David B. B. Haniford serves in the Department of Biochemistry at Western University. His research centers on molecular genetics and the mechanisms of DNA transposition. He investigates the structure and function of transpososomes to understand how mobile genetic elements influence genome evolution and stability. His mission is to unravel the biochemical pathways of genetic recombination to inform the development of novel biotechnological tools. Dr. Haniford provides research supervision for graduate and doctoral students. He utilizes advanced molecular biology techniques to study the interactions between proteins and nucleic acids, focusing on the fundamental principles of life.
