See a Single Stem Cell Grow Into a Complete Creature
From the National Geographic: “Scientists have created a genetic roadmap for how lone cells develop into complex life….”
Jens Schwamborn
Jens Schwamborn has a track record in the fields’ stem cell research, neuroscience and in vitro modeling of Parkinson’s disease. In the stem cell field he published manuscripts concerning cell fate specification in neural stem cells (Schwamborn et al., 2009, Cell ), the direct reprogramming of fibroblasts into neural stem cells (Han et al., 2012, Cell Stem Cell ), the function of micro-RNAs during neural stem cell maintenance (Palm et al., 2013, Nucleic Acids Research ) as well as the functional integration of transplanted stem cells in the mouse brain (Hemmer et al., 2014, Stem Cell Reports ). In the neuroscience field Jens Schwamborn published about neocortex formation in primates (Kelava et al., 2012, Cerebral Cortex ), the establishment of a stem cell–based phenotypic assay for neurotoxicity (Hoening et al., 2012, Cell Stem Cell ) as well as the molecular mechanisms that are contributing to the specification of Oligodendrocytes...
