Regenerative Medicine:<\/strong> Our current research interests are focused on the use of placental stem cells, particularly amniotic epithelial cells, as a possible source for the regenerative medicine of the liver and other tissues\/organs. Studies include the isolation and characterization of placental stem cells and their secreted products. Recent projects are focused on the regeneration of the retina using placental stem cells, for the treatment of Macular Degeneration.<\/p>\n

Carcinogenesis<\/b>:<\/strong> We are studying the role of tissue microenvironment in the development and progression of cancer, with a particular focus of the importance tissue pattern formation, cell competition, cell senescence and aging. We are also interested in studying clonal evolution of mutated cells in aging tissues and how shaping evolutionary trajectories could delay aging and prevent cancer formation.  <\/p>\n
