STATEMENT OF RESEARCH INTERESTS
The long-term goal in the Yin lab is to understand the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying liver development, regeneration and disease pathogenesis. Our projects use a combination of genetic, molecular, embryology, biochemical, and cell biological approaches in the zebrafish model to address questions related to liver biology.

Currently, there are two main focuses in the lab. The first one is to delineate the regulation of hepatic stellate cells, the key cell type responsible for liver fibrosis, during liver development and injury. The second one is to understand the cell biology of hepatic biliary cells in the zebrafish models of biliary diseases.
