Contributed seminal insights into silencing strategies in neuronal and organ development with the discovery of the REST repressor and elucidation of a novel corepressor machinery, including CoREST. Demonstrated a proteolytic control mechanism for REST, as a mechanistic switch for regulating the transition from neuronal precursors to neuronal differentiation programs.
