Funded Activity Summary

In recent years there has been considerable interest in stem cells because they have the potential to provide new therapeutic approaches to disease. Indeed, haematopoietic stem cells are already used in treatments for leukaemia. Many organs in adult humans contain stem cells, including the brain. In order to develop safe, and effective, stem cell-based treatments for human diseases it is necessary to determine how proliferation and differentiation are regulated in adult stem cells.
