Editors for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine

We aim to review advances in all areas of stem cell biology and regenerative medicine, including the discovery of new mechanisms that regulate stem cell function, organogenesis, and tissue regeneration. We are also interested in clinical trials or other clinical observations that reveal new approaches to therapy or new biological insights. Read the latest research in this subject area.

  2. Utpal Banerjee

    University of California, Los Angeles, United States

    Utpal Banerjee is the Irving and Jean Stone Professor and Chair of the Department of Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology at the University of California, Los Angeles, with a joint appointment in the Department of Biological Chemistry at the David Geffen School of Medicine. He also serves as Co-Director of the Broad Stem Cell Research Center and as Director of the UCLA Interdepartmental Minor in Biomedical Research. He is a member of UCLA’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center and is affiliated with the Brain Research Institute and the Neuroscience Graduate Program.

    Banerjee’s laboratory has worked on several oncogenic and metabolic signals that are important in development and disease. The lab studies the effects of systemic signals on the maintenance of blood progenitors in Drosophila, and the role of metabolic pathways in the control of proliferation and differentiation in the preimplantation mouse embryo.

  3. Lynne-Marie Postovit

    University of Alberta, Canada

    Dr Lynne-Marie Postovit is a Professor and Head of the Department of Biomedical and Molecular Sciences (DBMS) at Queen’s University. Prior to this she held several endowed chairs in Cancer Research at the University of Alberta. Overall, Dr Postovit’s work has yielded many fundamental discoveries, leading to highly cited papers as well as putative clinical applications. As examples, she is recognized for her work related to the role of NODAL, a stem-cell associated protein, in cancer progression, as well as significant contributions related to extracellular matrices, the role of hypoxia in cancer progression and more recently the role of mRNA translation in cancer cell plasticity. Her discoveries have also provided the foundations for three patents. While focused on fundamental biology related to cancer cell plasticity, Dr Postovit’s research has often been translated to the clinic, for the benefit of patients.

    Exemplifying her stature in the field, Dr Postovit has served on the editorial boards of journals and has presented her work at international conferences and institutions around the globe. Dr Postovit’s achievements have also been recognized by invitations to participate on scientific advisory boards, adjudication panels, and planning committees. For instance, she was a member of the Standing Committee on Research Excellence [Terry Fox Research Institute (TFRI)], the Scientific Advisory Board for the Cancer Research Society, the AACR Regional Advisory Subcommittee of Canada, and the Medical Review panel (Gairdner Foundation). These boards decided the outcomes of some of the most prestigious awards and grants related to cancer research. Dr Postovit has also received several awards and accolades: For example, she was the top ranked New Investigator at the CIHR (2009) and in 2016, was nominated to the college of the Royal Society of Canada.

    Importantly, Dr Postovit has been a dedicated advocate for the research enterprise at large. She was a founding co-director of the Cancer Research Institute of Northern Alberta, wherein she built educational programming and organizational structures to support translational cancer research. More recently she has been building core research capacities at Queen’s, obtaining funds from sources such as the Transformative Educational Research Fund, to establish team based experiential learning opportunities in the health sciences and to ensure equitable access to research infrastructure.

  4. Sonia Q Sen

    Tata Institute for Genetics and Society, India

    Sonia Sen is a senior scientist at the Tata Institute for Genetics and Society, Bangalore. Her research interests span neurodevelopment and behaviour. Her group studies how neural stem cells use and integrate spatial and temporal information to generate diverse cell types during development. Beyond neurodevelopment, her team explores how these diverse cell types form functional neural circuits and examines how these circuits give rise to appropriate behaviours, with a particular emphasis on mosquitoes.

    Sonia did her PhD at the National Centre for Biological Sciences – TIFR, Bangalore and a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Oregon with Chris Q Doe.

  5. Lori Sussel

    University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, United States

    Lori Sussel is a Professor of Pediatrics and Cell & Developmental Biology at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Center. She also serves as Director of the Research Division at Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes. She received her BA in Microbiology at the University of Texas, Austin and her PhD in Molecular Biology from Columbia University where she investigated transcriptional regulation in yeast. She pursued postdoctoral studies first with Dr. Barbara Meyer (UC Berkeley) and then Dr. John Rubenstein (UC San Francisco) where applied her interests in transcriptional regulation of cell fates to developmental processes. During her postdoctoral studies, she was funded by a Life Science Research Fellowship, a NIH F32 fellowship and the A.P Giannini Foundation. She began her independent career at the University of Colorado where she initiated her studies on the transcriptional regulation of pancreatic islet cell fates. In 2006, she moved to the Naomi Berrie Diabetes Center at Columbia University where she continued to investigate pancreas development and islet biology, expanding her interests in transcriptional regulation to roles of long non-coding RNAs and RNA processing. In 2016, she returned to the University of Colorado to become the Director of Basic and Translational Research at the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes. Her research continues to focus on pancreas development and islet biology using mice and human stem cell platforms to understand the molecular underpinnings of the islet dysfunctions associated with diabetes. In this position, she holds the Sissel and Findlow Family Chair in Stem Cell Biology.
