Elisa T. Zhang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology and Membrane Biology at UC Davis. Her research focuses on understanding the mechanisms underlying uterine health and regeneration, particularly how the endometrium regenerates and its role in embryo implantation. This includes studying the regenerative capabilities of the uterus after injuries such as C-sections, which can lead to complications in subsequent pregnancies. Using advanced human and mouse organoid models, her work explores the complexity of endometrial tissue and identifies stem cell populations that contribute to injury repair. Zhang's studies aim to uncover the cellular and structural diversity of mammalian uteri and placentas, employing innovative functional approaches to investigate uterine and embryo interactions. Her work carries implications for broader fields including wound healing, developmental biology, and stem cell research.
