The Bayin Lab studies molecular mechanisms that regulate stem cell behaviours and age-dependent regenerative mechanisms in the brain.
A pseudocolored image of the neonatal mouse cerebellum shows the laminar structure of the neonatal cerebellum and the nestin-expressing progenitors and astroglia.
We study the mammalian cerebellum as a paradigm to identify cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic mechanisms regulating key stem cell behaviours during development, and molecular factors that inhibit effective regeneration in the adult brain or support regeneration in the developing brain.
