About
Our lab focuses on how embryonic cells organise themselves to form the most complex lifeforms, such as human and non-human primates.
We follow primate embryonic cells through parts of their journey to provide insights into human development. Our approaches include simultaneous genetic and epigenetic high-throughput sequencing from single cells, embryonic stem cell culture and bioengineering of stem cell-based embryo models.
A deeper understanding of primate development is vital for innovative treatments of implantation failure, infertility and cancer as well as clinical applications of stem cell biology.
