Researchers from Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm University, KTH and Uppsala University have mapped how cells in the human spinal cord are formed in the embryo and which genes control this development. This could lead to new knowledge about how injuries and diseases in the spinal cord occur and how they can be treated.
Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics and Science for Life Laboratory researcher Marta Carroni is this years’ winner of the Hugo Theorell Prize in Biophysics.
