Sahin Lab
Advancing discovery of neurodevelopmental mechanisms and next-generation therapies.
We apply stem cell models to study the cellular mechanisms of axon guidance and role of interneurons in relation to neurological dysfunction in childhood neurological diseases.
Both in the lab and in the clinic, we aim to bring new treatments to childhood neurological diseases and improve the lives of children and families affected by these conditions.
