About
Dr. Mably is an Instructor at Harvard Medical School and an Assistant in Biology at MGH in the Department of Medicine. He performed both his undergraduate (B.Sc., 1986) and graduate work at the University of Toronto, earning his Ph.D. in 1994 working in the laboratory of Dr. C.C. Liew. After a short training in human genetics with Dr. Michael Sole studying a large pedigree with Familial Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, he came to the Massachusetts General Hospital to work with Dr. Mark C. Fishman. He began his developmental biology research using zebrafish as an animal model by characterizing three mutants essential to myocardial growth. In addition to the positional cloning of these genes, he participated in the second large scale ENU screen at MGH to identify mutants affecting the cardiovascular system. He was appointed as an Instructor in Medicine in 1999, at which time he helped create a large-scale zebrafish positional cloning initiative in the CVRC. Since 2003, he has been an Assistant in Biology at MGH. His interests continue to focus on the developmental biology of the cardiovascular system in zebrafish.
