Lab Info.

We are interested in the mechanisms of mammalian retinal development and regeneration.
Main research topics in the laboratory is
1) Complex signaling network for border formation in optic neuroepithelial continuum
2) Intracellular signaling pathways that coordinate proliferation and differentiation of retinal progenitor cells
3) Regulation of neural development and regeneration by intercellular transfer of homeodomain proteins
4) Selected neuronal regeneration in disease tissues
