Peter Rigby, chief executive of the Institute for Cancer research, will explore how the stem cells are made in the embryo and activated in adults.
Skeletal muscles allow us to move, breathe, smile and look around. They are first made in the embryo in response to signals which tell naïve cells to be muscle rather than skin or bone. Peter Rigby, chief executive of the Institute for Cancer research, will explore how the stem cells which govern muscle growth and repair are made in the embryo, activated in adults and may even be able to be used to repair damaged muscles.
