Summary
Identifying molecular regulators of haematopoietic stem cell development. Blood stem cells are capable of making all types of mature blood cell whilst making new copies of themselves. These properties are essential for the life-long supply of blood and make stem cells ideal for therapeutic use. By studying embryos, this project will identify genes that control the production and expansion of blood-forming stem cells.
