2006: Programmed differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells using artificial signaling pathways

Heart and brain

Our vision is to develop reliable techniques for programmed tissue generation in mammalian systems. Our iGEM 2006 work encompasses artificial cell-cell signaling and signal processing, directed differentiation, pattern formation, modeling and precise cellular placement.

A summary of the project is available.
