Dr. Meritxell Huch is a Scientific Director at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics and an Honorary Professor at the Technical University of Dresden. Her research focuses on liver and pancreas organoid models. She discusses a protocol for liver mesenchyme and ductal cell organoid co-culture and generating bipotent stem cells from the liver. She also tells her story of moving throughout Europe to pursue her scientific passions.

The Stem Cell Science Round Up

A Zebrafish Developmental Atlas – Zebrahub is a transcriptional and spatiotemporal resource of zebrafish development.

Fertilization in Zebrafish and Humans – A conserved sperm complex binds to divergent egg proteins in mice and mammals to mediate sperm-egg interaction.

Dedifferentiation and Limb Progenitors – Chemically-induced dedifferentiation generates progenitor-like cells similar to human embryonic limb bud progenitors.

Yamanaka Factors in Neurodegeneration – Scientists induced Yamanaka factors in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease.
