About us
The Li lab studies molecular pathways that control neural stem cell fate, differentiation, and circuit assembly. We focus on the development of the cerebellum. We employ mouse genetics, embryonic stem cell differentiation, 3D-imaging, single-cell analysis to unveil mechanisms of brain development in health and disease.
