Catarina M. Henriques lab: Tissue Repair and Immunity in Ageing (TRIA)
Research focus
We are all ageing, and with age come disease. Why does this happen? Why do our tissues stop healing properly? Our lab uses zebrafish as a model to try and answer these questions.
Our ultimate aim is to identify therapeutic targets that can be used to incentivate tissue rejuvenation and ameliorate multiple diseases of ageing.
