StemCells@Lunch Digested

This week’s podcast episode, Dr Ines Sequeira interviews Dr Agathe Chaine from the MRC Laboratory for Molecular Cell Biology based at UCL. We hear about her research history, working with “soft cells”, asymmetric division during the development of embryos, and the different types of techniques are being used in her lab… Dr Chaine was awarded her PhD from the CIRB Collége de France where she stayed on to do a Post Doctoral position researching the biophysical properties of embryonic mitosis. She is now a Post-Doctoral Fellow at the MRC Laboratory for Molecular and Cell Biology based at UCL, where she is studying how cells control their shape and size in asymmetric division during embryonic development For more information about her research please click the following link: http://www.ucl.ac.uk/lmcb/users/agathe-chaigne
