Wagers, Amy, Ph.D. Forst Family Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology

Research in Dr. Wagers’s lab seeks to discover fundamental principles that govern tissue aging and determine stem cell function in organ regeneration and degenerative disease. These efforts build upon novel discoveries and unique experimental models, which are defining the cellular and molecular networks that control muscle regenerative activity and uncovering common signals delivered via the bloodstream that can reverse the effects of aging across tissues.
