Brief description We have different types of infection-fighting white blood - the soliders of the immune system. They can all grow from a single stem cell like a seed grows into a tree. So, by understanding this complex process, new and better therapies for cancer, organ transplantation and infectious disease are constantly emerging. I aim to use a cutting-edge technology called ‘cellular barcoding’ to answer some of the age-old questions about how stem cells grow into white blood cells.
