Yasuhiro Yamada of Gifu University move to CiRA on a full-time basis

February 1, 2010 - Yasuhiro Yamada, a former associate professor at Gifu University School of Medicine, has moved to CiRA on a full-time basis.

Yamada joined the department of clinical applications and Core Facilities at CiRA since April 1, 2009, as a visiting professor. His team found that while REST, which is expressed in ES cells, is not required for the maintenance of pluripotency itself, it plays an important role in ES cell differentiation.

This work was published in the January edition of Cell Stem Cell.
