The Habib Lab works at the interface of stem cell biology & bioengineering to study development and explore innovative therapeutics for regenerative medicine.
Lausanne, Switzerland
Joined July 2012
The Habib Lab has published in @NatureMaterials a paper that presents a new biomaterial and engineered tissue that maintains and directs human skeletal stem cells for the repair of critical sized bone fractures. https://t.co/Da7SWbe2zw

A wonderful collab with @MapelliMarina ! Our new manuscript shows how localized Wnt signals guide asymmetric cell division: orienting the spindle, stabilizing cortical contractility, and even polarizing mitochondria via CENP-F and LRP6. A fresh look at mitotic Wnt signaling! 🔬
Very happy to share that our manuscript on Wnt3a-dependent asymmetric cell divisions and mitochondrial polarisation is out today in @NatureComms Congratulations to all the authors! 🥂 @LabMapelli @ShukryHabib_Lab @IEOufficiale @AIRC_it

Illustration inspired by Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. The central focus highlights a microCT scan of mouse bone repair at different stages: youthful bones (13:00), aged bones (22:00), and aged bones under an intermittent fasting protocol (18:00). Image credit: Habib Lab.

Our new paper is out! Aging impairs bone healing, but our 2-part strategy—localized Wnt signaling + short-term metabolic interventions restores youthful repair! This approach may rejuvenate repair in other aging tissues. https://t.co/gHo4D9GpUm
