Sabbatical in Singapore

Carlos Ibanez and Annalena Moliner are heading to Singapore on December 18 for a 5-month sabbatical until May 2011. They will be hosted by Dr. Bing Lim of the Genome Institute of Singapore and Dr. Sai Kiang Lim of the Institute of Medical Biology, located at the Biopolis campus run by the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), Singapore’s lead government agency dedicated to fostering world-class scientific research. They will be working on several of our ongoing collaborative projects with these groups, applying advanced functional genomics and stem cell biology methods to study pancreatic islet development and function in cells and tissue derived from mouse mutants generated at the laboratory.
