Northwestern associate professor of molecular biosciences Christian Petersen will receive the 2018 Elizabeth D. Hay New Investigator Award from the Society for Developmental Biology (SDB). This award recognizes a new early-stage investigator performing outstanding research in developmental biology.
Petersen will be honored for his research, which uses the flatworm planarian as a research model organism to uncover the biology underlying tissue regeneration and the control of adult stem cells.
Along with receiving this award, Petersen will give a platform lecture on his work at the SDB’s annual meeting in Portland, Oregon July 20-24, 2018.
