Dana Trompet
PhD

I study the skeletal stem and progenitor cells (SSPCs), their interaction with their niche, and their behavior upon different stimuli or environments. I am interested in the regulation of SSPCs via growth hormone, and how SSPCs are affected in pathological conditions.

Daniela Hanke
PhD

I study the effects of malnourishment and later catch-up growth on stem cells in the growth plate using various diets and different transgenic mouse strains. Further I try to establish an assay to transdifferentiate human fibroblast into osteoblasts to measure osteoblastic bone mineralization in fibroblast extracted from patients with bone-specific diseases.

Nelson Chu
PhD

I am working on characterizing the cellular dynamics of osteochondro-progenitor cells in bone and using advance imaging techniques to reconstruct the niche of skeletal stem cells in different context. I am also exploring the possibility to apply spatial transcriptomics to study the development of skeletal elements in detail.
