Adult Neural Stem Cells are Specified in Micro Domains
Arturo Alvarez-Buylla, University of California
At the beginning of the nineties Arturo Alvarez-Buylla was among the first scientists to demonstrate that adult neurogenesis does occur in the mammalian brain. Since then, his research has unraveled most of the structural and functional features of the subventricular zone stem cell niche.
