Research Interests
Tissues across the human body are maintained under homeostatic conditions by multipotent stem cells residing in them. Perturbation of these adult stem cells often results in the accumulation of aberrant cell types leading to diseases. Understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating these stem cells is crucial to development of therapeutic interventions to ensure pathological tissues return to homeostatic conditions. Primarily, we aim to characterize the states and fates of pulmonary and gastrointestinal cells.
