Understanding the ancestry of de novo blood formation in the early embryo [ 2017 - ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Samir Taoudi (Principal investigator)

Brief description Current laboratory methods rely on a hit-or-miss approach for the production of such cells, making the prospect of producing patient-specific cells an inefficient/financially prohibitive process. This project aims to generate new knowledge into when and how fate of early blood cells in selected in nature. With this information we will be able to devise effective blood progenitor cell production strategies in the laboratory.
