Our research focuses on the relationship between development and cancer, particularly in the brain. We are interested in how normal stem cells and progenitors make decisions, such as when to divide and when to differentiate. We are also interested in how those decisions go wrong in cancer.
Major areas of investigation are listed below. Please click on the headings to learn more about a particular area.
