Researcher
Luc Baeyens
- Keywords:Medicine
- Disciplines:Cell growth and development, Cell therapy, Developmental biology , Foetal development
- Users of research expertise:
I performed research into diabetes-oriented regenerative therapy, secured critical research funding and grants, and contributed to teaching and mentoring students. Currently I am working on a novel method to trigger human beta cell replication, as well as on the establishment of a humanized mouse model to study human pancreas development.
