STATEMENT OF RESEARCH INTERESTS

We are interested to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms that drive in vivo vertebrate neuroepithelial morphogenesis in the early embryo.
In order to dissect this question we are currently using a combination of tools ranging from genetics, embryology and quantitative live imaging approaches.
