Elly Tanaka received her PhD
in Biochemistry at the University of California, San Francisco
in 1994. She went on to do her post-doctoral work with
Jeremy Brockes at the Ludwig Institute, University College
London, where she initiated her work on regeneration.
focusing on the cell cycle re-entry of differentiated
urodele muscle cells that occurs during regeneration.
Since 1999 she has been a group leader at the Max-Planck
Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics, Dresden,
Germany where she has expanded her research in limb and
tail regeneration. Her lab seeks to understand the factors
that trigger regeneration, and to determine the multipotency
of the progenitor cells that execute regeneration of complex
structures |
