New model for stem cell number regulation: Haematopoietic stem cell number is not solely defined by niche availability
Date: January 22, 2026, at 3 pm CET
Speaker: Shoichiro Takeishi is a physician-scientist who obtained his MD and PhD at Kyushu University, Japan. His PhD research provided proof-of-concept that quiescence in leukemic stem cells contributes to their therapeutic resistance. He now investigates the extrinsic regulation of normal hematopoietic and malignant stem cells.
What will be discussed:
- A new bone transplantation system to increase the availability of hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) niches
- Restriction of HSC numbers at systemic and local levels
- Mechanisms regulating HSC numbers at the systemic level
