Developmental evolutionary and stem cell biology
I am a developmental evolutionary and stem cell biologist who studies the genetic basis of skeletal muscle stem cell action during development, evolution, regeneration and disease. My key discoveries utilise several models, mainly the zebrafish, to define the genetic and evolutionary basis for muscle formation and growth throughout vertebrate phylogeny.
