He currently holds the Eugene Higgins Professor of Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology at Yale University. Research The Carlson lab studies insect chemosensation using the model organism Drosophila. Significant contributions to the field include discovery of the olfactory receptor genes in insects using the Drosophila genome, called the Odorant Receptor gene family, followed by the discovery of the insect taste receptor genes, called the Gustatory Receptor gene family, a system to deorphanize insect odorant receptors referred to as the "empty neuron" system, using which a study identified ligands for most of the Drosophila Olfactory Receptor repertoire and a similar study that characterized the Or repertoire of the Anopheles gambiae mosquito. Carlson lab research has also been featured in Scientific American.
