MIPS Seminar: Stem cell niche interactions at the barrier
December 6th, 2022 @ 9:30 am - 10:30 am
Tien Peng, MD, Associate Professor, Pulmonary, Critical Care, Allergy & Sleep, UCSF
While resident tissue stem cells play an important role in the regenerative process, they are located within a cellular ecosystem (or “niche”) composed of various cell types that regulate stem cell function. The Peng Lab is interested in how supportive niche cells modify the regenerative capacity of the stem cell, with the goal of deciphering cellular crosstalk that drives adaptive tissue regeneration.
