Unveiling the human reprogramming pathway [ 2016 - 2019 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: A/Pr Jose Polo (Principal investigator) ,  A/Pr Andrew Laslett

Brief description This research program aims to unveil for the first time the black box that the reprogramming of human cells into pluripotency is. This is important from a basic biology point of view as it allows for the understanding of the forces that control cell fate and also, from a therapeutic point of view, for the full development of new reprogramming strategies using these two stages of pluripotency. Thus, the outcomes of this grant will facilitate clinical translation of future stem cell iPS cells base
