Shankar Srinivas

Professor of Developmental Biology

Photonics is one of the tools that helps me to study embryogenesis, by imaging cell movements and fate during early mouse development. Embryogenesis is the process by which a fertilized egg, consisting of a single apparently amorphous cell, develops into the final adult form, composed of many cells arranged in structures with specific shapes. We use a variety of microscopy techniques in our investigations, but are always keen to identify new approaches to image live cells with minimal photodamage.
