2:00pm 		  Reversing Stem Cell Dysfunction in Aging and Disease  
(VTC)

Amy Wagers, PhD
Associate Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology
Harvard University
Cambridge, Massachusetts

A research seminar in the Distinguished Visiting Scholars Series

Stem cells are essential for tissue maintenance and repair after injury. Yet organismal aging leads to a loss of stem cell regenerative potential that ultimately translates into a failure to maintain tissue homeostasis. Similarly, disruption of the normal balance between stem cell self-renewal and differentiation can lead to malignant transformation. This lecture will focus on strategies to intervene in these disease processes through an understanding of the intrinsic and extrinsic signals that control stem cell fate.
