Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation in Pigs and Mice

Principal Investigator: Associate Professor Ping Xia, Ph.D., M.D.

This project pool includes embryonic stem cell differentiation in pigs and mice; identification of small molecules in inducing mesenchymal stem cell differentiation; and embryonic disc differentiation in pigs. This project also includes looking at protein markers in early embryos with positive pregnancies in humans.
