Dr. Alvarez-Buylla comes from UCSF and is generally regarded as a world authority on the study of adult neural stem cells. He is one of the pioneers in this field of research and his work has led to many seminal discoveries. Below is a selected list of some of the most recent publications from his lab. I am delighted that Arturo accepted my invitation to come to the MNI as a Killam spaker. I am truly looking forward to his visit, which should be of great interest to many of us.
