معرفی
Volker Hartenstein is a Professor in the Department of Molecular, Cell, and Developmental Biology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), and a member of the Brain Research Institute. His research focuses on neuronal development in Drosophila and primitive invertebrates, utilizing genetic, biochemical, and digital modeling approaches.
Research Interests include neuroblast formation, axonogenesis, and synapse formation in Drosophila embryonic and larval brains. He investigates the role of adhesion molecules like DE-cadherin and Fas, as well as signaling pathways such as EGFR, Hh, and Dpp. His work extends to comparative studies of neural development in platyhelminths, exploring evolutionary homologies and conserved gene networks.
Publications highlight his contributions to understanding neural progenitor dynamics, hematopoiesis, and the creation of Drosophila digital brain atlases. Collaborative projects include developing open-source tools like Fiji and TrakEM2 for biological imaging.
Laboratory members include Jennifer Lovick, Darren Wong, and Kathy Ngo. Safety protocols and resources for lab members are rigorously maintained through UCLA Environmental Health & Safety training programs.
