Research project funded by NIAMS to study cell proliferation mechanisms in mammalian skin and musculoskeletal regeneration using multispecies models, aiming to develop regenerative therapies.
Description
This project investigates proliferative control mechanisms during mammalian skin and musculoskeletal regeneration using a multispecies system. It aims to understand how highly regenerative mammals activate and maintain cell proliferation in inhibitory conditions to drive regeneration, generating novel targets for regenerative therapies and high throughput screening tools.
