Interrogating the roles of microRNAs in entering and exiting ground state pluripotency in embryonic stem cells

Amy will begin her Fellowship in the laboratory of Dr Lin He at the University of California, Berkeley, investigating the roles of microRNAs in embryonic stem cell pluripotency regulation. During the later phase of the Fellowship, Amy will move to Professor Austin Smith's laboratory at the University of Cambridge to continue her research. This work will also be undertaken in collaboration with Professor Allan Bradley at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute.
