We love and study Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs), the adult stem cells that give rise to all types of blood and immune cells.
 
HSCs are vital for the entire blood and immune system; they also enable bone marrow transplants that save ten-of-thousands of patients every year.
​
The lab combines basic interests in fundamental biology; we keep open to translating scientific findings for applications.  

ABOUT

Since 2013 we are working at the Ben-Gurion University of the Negev on Hematopoietic Stem Cells (HSCs).

Lab focus includes:

1. Improve the identification and understanding of HSCs during immune-stimulation

2. Generate novel Leukemia models in immune-competent mice

3. Elucidate the molecular role of key transcription factors in HSCs

4. Direct Reprogramming of adult blood cells into HSCs

5. Rejuvenate the blood- and immune-system

6. Improve the understanding and treatment of blood malignancies

7. Elucidate splicing at single-cell level
