Decoding the gene networks that drive healthy human development and understanding how their disruption leads to conditions such as congenital heart disorders and childhood cancers using innovative bioinformatics approaches.
We study the ethical, legal and social implications of stem cell research and related technologies.Our research seeks to capture the views and experiences of families and individuals contemplating experimental stem cell and gene therapies.
Using advanced pluripotent stem cell-derived 3D organoid models of the human brain to study neurodevelopmental disorders and identify new therapeutic approaches.
Our research aims to discover the gene regulatory networks controlled by Distal-less transcription factors in the developing brain and link them towards developmental reprogramming of specific children’s brain cancers.
Our laboratory uses stem cells to generate human bioengineered skeletal muscle to understand disease and find treatments.
Our vision is to develop new treatments for inherited and chronic kidney disease. Using human stem cells to recreate kidney tissue, we hope to model kidney disease, find new therapies, and eventually develop replacement organs. The Group Leader is Professor Melissa Little.
Our vision is to use human pluripotent stem cells to study immunity and autoimmunity, which will help us understand how our immune system defends against diseases and why it sometimes attacks itself.
Our laboratory studies cell signalling to understand the driving forces behind complex human diseases.
Our Blood Development group is studying the process of human blood cell development. Our vision is to utilise human pluripotent stem cells to advance our understanding of blood, bone and cartilage development and diseases.
Prevention, early intervention, improved health and wellbeing for children and families living with food allergy.
