Current research:
Cell Biology and Pancreas
Clinical Interests:
- cell biology of the pancreas, with a focus is on diabetes mellitus
Areas of interest:
- induction of islet cell neogenesis using differentiation factors, e.g. INGAP peptide
- identification and characterization of adult pancreatic stem cells
- nuclear reprogramming, transdifferentiation and cell plasticity
- islet cell apoptosis
- islet cell transplantation
We are interested in structure-function relationships and our studies seek to correlate in-vitro and in-vivo morphological and functional observations with signal transduction and transcriptional events.
