progenitor division; signaling
The broad objective of the research program developped in the Davy team is to better understand how the neocortex develops using the mouse as a model organism. We focus primarily on the role of cell-to-cell signaling in the regulation of neurogenesis and neural progenitor maintenance and specification.
