My research focuses on the molecular and functional properties of muscle progenitor cells and muscle stem cells derived from human development and from human pluripotent stem cells. We are evaluating the functional engraftment potential via direct intra muscular versus systemic engraftment of CRISPR corrected cells in mouse models of DMD.
