Professor Elizabeth Robertson (FRS, FMedSci, CBE) is a leading researcher at the University of Oxford in the Dunn School, focusing on the Transcriptional Regulators of Mammalian Development. Her work employs genetic strategies to identify signaling pathways and transcription factors governing cell fate decisions in mouse embryos, particularly the roles of Nodal, BMPs, and Eomesodermin in axis formation, germ layer specification, and placental development.
- Key Contributions: Discovery of Nodal/BMP signaling interactions in germ cell niche regulation and Eomesodermin's role in hemogenic competence of yolk sac mesoderm.
- Research Techniques: In vivo fate mapping, in vitro differentiation, degron tagging, single-cell genomics.
Scientific Honors:
- Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) - 2024 New Year Honours
- Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS)
- Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences (FMedSci)
Publications explore transcriptional hierarchies in embryonic development, with recent work on Eomesodermin's epigenetic regulation of hematopoietic progenitors. Her grants include multiple Medical Research Council and Wellcome Trust awards.
