Somatic Reprogramming: The molecular mechanisms regulating human somatic cell reprogramming remain largely unknown. We are focusing on understanding the molecular regulators that influence reprogramming efficiency and quality. In particular, we are interested in understanding the role of epigenetic modifiers and metabolic regulators in modulating human somatic cell reprogramming. The study will provide insight into elucidating the molecular regulators controlling reprogramming and pave the way for improving human somatic cell reprogramming efficiency and quality for personalized regenerative medicine.
