Laboratory of Pluripotent Stem Cell & Developmental Biology

Research Field: Over the years, Jin lab has focused on the self-renewal and differentiation regulatory mechanism of pluripotent stem cells, especially human embryonic stem cells, and is committed to revealing signaling pathways, transcription factors and epigenetic regulatory factors that ensures the infinite self-renewal of embryonic stem cells, aiming to optimize the in vitro culture system of human embryonic stem cells and lay the foundation for obtaining functional cells essential for clinical treatment.
