Professor Dr. Sarah Bowling

Biography

Sarah Bowling is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Developmental Biology at Stanford University School of Medicine. She completed her PhD at Imperial College London, where her research focused on understanding the mechanisms and roles of cell competition in early mammalian development. Following her doctoral studies, she conducted postdoctoral research at Boston Children's Hospital in the Harvard Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology, where she co-developed new lineage tracing mouse models that enable the simultaneous tracing of thousands of cells in vivo using unique, transcribed cellular barcodes. Sarah's current research addresses lineage formation and tissue growth during normal and perturbed embryogenesis, employing a combination of next-generation tools and classical embryological approaches to uncover mechanisms of plasticity and resilience in mammalian embryo development. The Bowling lab aims to extend knowledge in regeneration and developmental diseases through this work.
