BIOGRAPHY AND RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research interests include the specification of axial pattern in the developing central nervous system. I am using a combination of genetics molecular biology and experimental embryology to dissect the earliest events involved in induction and patterning of the CNS, with a particular focus on posterior neuroectoderm.
