CCB Seminar: “Developmental Dynamics During Vertebrate Embryogenesis”

Speaker: Alexander Schier, Ph.D., Director of the Biozentrum, University of Basel

Title: Developmental dynamics during vertebrate embryogenesis

Breakthroughs in single-cell genomics have begun to comprehensively identify the transcriptional changes during cellular differentiation. I will discuss how we use these datasets to uncover the composition and regulation of modules that remodel cellular structures and functions. I will also talk about our recent efforts in using non-traditional model systems to study embryogenesis and sleep.
