George Sen is a Professor in the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine at the University of California, San Diego. His research is focused on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying epidermal stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. He investigates the factors that govern these processes, which are crucial for maintaining epidermal homeostasis. Unchecked proliferation and reduced differentiation can lead to various human skin disorders, including psoriasis and skin cancers. Sen's work aims to unravel the regulators of epidermal stem cell behavior to develop potential treatments for these debilitating conditions. His future research will continue to identify and characterize novel regulators of epidermal homeostasis, with the overarching goal of defining the crucial factors that influence stem cell self-renewal, differentiation, and tumorigenesis.
