Welcome to the Poss Lab! Our diverse group of post doctoral fellows, graduate students and research associates aim to understand the mechanisms underlying vertebrate tissue regeneration focusing on the heart, spinal cord and major appendages in zebrafish, which possess especially high regenerative capacity.
Welcome new lab members Zihan Wang and Masashi Sada!
