LIAN is a research laboratory dedicated to the study of pluripotent stem cells. These cells have a unique potential for differentiation into any type of cell in the adult organism. This ability is used in different experiments to understand the biology of these cells, with the ultimate goal of achieving improvements that can eventually be applied in the clinic. Our lines of research are aimed at exploring the phenomena that regulate pluripotency, as well as the mechanisms involved in their differentiation, mainly to neurons, cardiac cells and mesenchymal stem cells.
