Research Interest
My lab is interested in the function and regulation of neural stem cells in the mammalian brains. More Specifically we are working on 1). Symmetric and asymmetric division of neuronal stem cell; 2).Niches and neural differentiation of embryonic stem cell; 3).Modeling human brain developmental diseases with pluripotent stem cells and in animal models; 4).Molecular and cellular mechanism regulating neuronal stem cell fate and circuits formation during the development of cerebral cortex.
