3D Nanoscale Architecture and Physiology of the Human Airway Epithelium
… in the differentiation of airway basal stem cells into multiciliated cells within the human respiratory epithelium – a tissue barrier crucial for protection against bacteria, viruses, and particulate matter. In this thesis, I present the first isotropic three-dimensional map of the human …

Investigating factors governing cell fate decisions in respiratory epithelium
… of airway epithelial progenitors/stem cells into mature multiciliated cells (MCCs). Here, I have identified 2 novel transcription factors, Fank1 and Jazf1 which form part of the transcription factor cascade regulating multiciliogenesis in adult and embryonic mouse tracheas. Mouse …

The role of hydrodynamic forces in synchronisation and alignment of mammalian motile cilia
… dyskinesia (PCD) or asthma. In the brain, the multiciliated ependymal cells cover all the ventricles. Their cilia beat in a coordinated fashion to ensure the cerebrospinal fluid circulation necessary for brain homoeostasis, toxin washout and orientation of the migration of newborn neurons. …
