Research and development
Based on our previous findings, we have applied integrated approaches with a broad range of techniques in both research areas. This is a logical consequence of our previous work and a transfer of basic research to clinical medicine. The following questions are being investigated:
- How does cellular crosstalk translate into differential intercellular signaling, transcriptional regulation, and gene expression?
- How is cellular crosstalk reflected in the developmental process? What can we learn from transgenic animal models?
- New therapeutic strategies based on a comprehensive understanding of this form of integrative medicine.
