Anne Grapin-Botton

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anne Grapin-Botton (born July 1, 1967 in La Rochelle ) is a French biologist and director at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden .

Life

Grapin-Botton studied biology at UPMC University Pierre and Marie Curie (Paris VI) and graduated in 1991 in molecular and cell pharmacology. In 1995 she did her doctorate there with a research focus on brain development . She then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University . In 2001 she became research group leader in the group for pancreatic development and cancer at the ISREC (Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research) and then at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne in Switzerland. In 2012 she moved to the Danish Stem Cell Center at the University of Copenhagen as professor of developmental biology . Since August 2018 she has been director at the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics. Grapin-Botton has received multiple awards and grants, including a Human Frontiers Science Program (HFSP) Long Term Fellowship.

Act

Grapin-Botton is a renowned expert in developmental and stem cell biology. They pioneered human in the cultivation and lessons from embryonic stem progenitor cells of the pancreas in organoids called miniature organs that are grown in the laboratory. The main focus of her work is pancreas research. In Dresden, Grapin-Botton and her group will research the way in which individual cells in a group work together to form an organ. Specifically, Grapin-Botton and her research group investigate the influence of cell and organ architecture on the decisions of precursor cells to form special cell types, such as a cell of the pancreas or an intestinal cell. The researchers are also looking into the question of how individual cells act in a community to form an organ.
