MD Anderson Events

Dean's Lecture presents Elaine Fuchs, Ph.D.

Dr. Fuchs studies the molecular pathways that determine cell fate, and how embryonic and adult stem cells establish unique programs of gene expression that determine when they divide and what types of cells they develop into.  She also researches how skin stem cells behave in vitro and exploits transgenic, gene knockout, microarray and shRNA technologies in mice to reveal how aberrant stem cell behavior in vivo can lead to a variety of disorders, including cancer.

Admission is free and open to the public.
