He then did postdoctoral training at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, University of Chicago, USA, studying epidermal biology through the use of genetically-altered mouse models. He joined the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute where he rose to the position of Senior Scientist in the Division of Regenerative Medicine. His research interests focus on stem cell biology, with a particular interest in the Claudin family of tight junction proteins and their role in epidermal lineage commitment and progression during development in health and disease. Dr. Turksen is currently series editor of Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine (Springer Nature) and Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine (Springer Nature).ver menos
