Cell fate regulation by microenvironments [ 2019 - ]

Research Grant

Brief description Blood stem cells in the bone marrow are constantly under pressure to produce a vast array of mature cell types that maintain the body in a healthy state of homeostasis. We do not fully understand how stem cells make these complex fate decisions, however, we do know that any disruption in their function can lead to development of disease like cancer and autoimmunity. Here, we will use cutting edge microscopy to study how signals from microenvironment control cell behaviour in living tissue.
