This NIH-funded project aims to understand pediatric pancreas development and β cell maturation using advanced multi-omic and spatial analysis techniques to inform diabetes research and therapy development.
Description
Studies of human pancreas development focusing on molecular and cellular processes during the pediatric period to improve diagnosis and treatment of type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The project uses single-cell multi-omic spatially-resolved data and living slice technology to investigate β cell maturation and pancreatic architecture.
