Open Opportunities

Using a sensor of cellular age to track neural stem cell aging

University of Zurich
Laboratory of Neural Plasticity

We have developed an age-sensor that translates cellular age into measurable fluorescence. The aim of this project is to use this age-sensor to track how neural stem cells age over time when overexpressing toxic proteins.
