Research

The Regen Lab is focused on the study of cell proliferation and cellular aging. We investigate why some cells no longer divide (cellular senescence), while others proliferate indefinitely (cancer and stem cells). We are examining how environmental chemicals and diet influence cell proliferation and how they contribute to disease development and progression, particularly on female reproduction, aging, and related-diseases. We are also exploring ways of eliminating harmful chemicals and reducing their negative impacts on health.
