The Role of Cell Cycle Control in Haemopoietic Stem Cell Fate Decisions. [ 2009 - 2013 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Carl Walkley (Principal investigator)

Brief description My research has focused on understanding how the process of cell division can result in different outcomes for adult blood stem cells. I am interested in determining the role of bone and blood vessels in the regulation of blood stem cells and in the development of blood diseases (myeloprolifertive disease). I will also determine the effects of changing the cell cycle with drugs to improve transplantation of blood stem cells.
