Overview The scientific area to which I have devoted most of my work is stem cell research. I am interested in signaling circuits that might regulate the stem/progenitor cell pool(s) within epithelial tissues, which are responsible for homeostatic maintenance and regeneration after injury. Uncovering key signals for stem cell proliferation and differentiation will provide new insights useful for disease treatments and regenerative medicine.
ORNG Applications Bibliographic
Altmetrics Details
PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media.
(Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.)
Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication.
Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication.
Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.)

This graph shows the number and percent of publications by field.
Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publications' journals and might not represent the specific topics of the publications.
Note that an individual publication can be assigned to more than one field. As a result, the publication counts in this graph might add up to more than the number of publications the person has written.
