Potts, Jay D

Professor

My laboratory is using developmental biology and its tenets in the pursuit of problems facing regenerative medicine. We use novel stem cells and scaffolds to try and mimic in vivo development in the hopes of gaining knowledge for potential therapuetic uses. We have focused on the heart, bone and more recently wound healing. We use state of the art technologies to bear including bioengineering aspects in answering these challenging questions
