summaryCédric is focussing on neural stem cell plasticity, in particular the regulation of stem cell division mode, and the control of the neural stem cell state by the physiological environment eg. nutritional input or metamorphosis hormones. He is also looking at how perturbations of neural stem cell pathways can lead to the formation of cancer stem cells. He is using the Drosophila model.
