It is absolutely fascinating how complex, hierarchical organs develop from very few cells. What I find particularly interesting is how cells coordinate this process and "make" robust decisions to ensure proper development. I am studying how cells do that in the context of blood vessel development - angiogenesis. Currently, I am focusing on developing new assays to study complex biological processes by combining micro fabrication and organoid systems or primary cells.
