Dr. Hamilton will use the award to study how colonic and intestinal stem cells protect the body from damage and how these cells fail in disease. The Lisa Dean Moseley Foundation encourages, promotes, and supports medical research focused on clinical stem cell research.
“We didn’t talk about it at home, and I wasn’t learning about it in school” Great write-up in Penn Today of IRM’s Jamie Shuda, Marisa Bartolomei, and the excellent Penn Academy for Reproductive Sciences (PARS) and Penn Academy for Skin Health (PASH) outreach programs.
Dr. Chris Lengner, Associate Director of the IRM, has received a two year grant from the Shipley Foundation’s new Program for Innovation in Stem Cell Science. This is a major new award mechanism for stem cell-based research and we are very proud of Chris receiving this high honor!
