Katharina Sonnen has received an ERC Starting Grant for her project "Signalling dynamics in the control of cell proliferation and differentiation during development and homeostasis". She and her team will use a comprehensive toolset including advanced light microscopy, perfusion chambers, and in vitro cultures of embryos and mini-organs in the dish to reveal how cells communicate with each other via signalling dynamics to ensure proper development and tissue homeostasis.
