 The Graduate Program in Cell Biology, Stem Cells and Development (CSD) at the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine offers training in these 3 overlapping areas, with an emphasis on how cells and tissues renew, integrate and change in response to molecular signals in development, homeostasis and disease.
In November 2007, our Graduate Program (formerly named Cell & Developmental Biology) joined with the Charles C. Gates Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Biology Program, greatly enhancing graduate student training opportunities and allowing us to expand our name to "Cell Biology, Stem Cells and Development." Faculty participating in the CSD Program hail from 8 diverse biomedical departments, yet are intellectually linked through our graduate program by their common research interests. Moreover, our 38 faculty members and their labs further align themselves with, but are not restricted to, 1 or more of the following 6 research sub-areas under the umbrella of our CSD Program. |
K. Artinger's mutagenesis screens in Zebrafish
 My laboratory is interested understanding how both neural plate border and neural crest cell fate is specified during development. More >T. Finger's solitary chemosensory receptor cells
 Solitary
chemosensory cells (green) detect airbone irritants and evoke protective
airway responses by transmitting the signal to nerve fibers
(red) and to local epithelial cells. More >L. Barlow focuses on the taste system of mice
 We are working to understand how the sense of taste develops in embryos and is maintained throughout adult life. More >D. Clouthier using Cre/loxP technology
 To understand the timing of Ednra action during development, we are using Cre/loxP technology in mice to generate conditional Ednra mutant mouse embryos. More > |
