Research InterestStem cells are unique in that can renew themselves through cell division or differentiate into a diverse range of specialized cell types. I will study genes that functions to prevent the growth of tumors and regulates stem cell decisions. Understanding the molecular mechanisms that mediate the choice between self-renewal and differentiation in stem cells has important implications for many areas of biology, including ancer treatment, regenerative medicine and new cell-based therapies.
