School of Life and Medical Sciences, UCL

Dr. Adam Giangreco has expertise in identifying and characterising endogenous pulmonary stem cells, with particular interests in lung regeneration, ageing and carcinogenesis.  He has recently developed techniques to allow in vivo assessment of lung stem cell function (Giangreco, et al. PNAS June 2009), and he is currently determining the key signalling pathways that mediate lung stem cell growth, quiescence and differentiation.  Adam is funded by a European Research Council Starting Investigator Award.
