Stem cell states
Stem cells have the extraordinary ability to develop into any type of cell in the body. We study the fundamentals of stem cell biology to understand the mechanisms by which they self-renew, maintain their states and commit to differentiate into all the cell types of the body.
Establishing new understanding of stem cell biology and behaviour complements and informs our studies of stem cell dysfunction in disease and provides the foundation of our translational aspirations for stem cells and therapeutics.
The Institute has a range of group leaders working across different topics within the stem cell states theme.
