Lab Info.

The Laboratory of Stem Cell and Tissue Regeneration is interested in how stem cells in our body function in tissue homeostasis and regeneration.
Using skin and endometrium as model tissues, we investigate the mechanisms of adult stem cell activation and differentiation during tissue development and regeneration.
The aim is to identify novel target molecules for various diseases and to propose new therapeutic approaches.
