Research interests: My research is focused on the specification of neural cell fates and the control of tissue morphogenesis in the developing central nervous system, with a focus on the retina and neocortex. I am now applying our knowledge of neural development to understand the injury response, and to create regenerative strategies for neurodegenerative diseases.
