Transforming growth factor-β superfamily, implications in development and differentiation of stem cells

  • Juan F. Santibanez

    Dr. Juan F. Santibanez received his PhD from the Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas “Alberto Sols” (IIBM), Spain in 1999, worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the “Centro de Investigaciones Biologicas, CIB”, Spain from 2003 to 2005. Dr. Santibanez was Research Associated (1991–1995), Instructor (-1999) and Assistant Professor (-2008) at the Laboratory for Cellular Research, INTA, Universidad de Chile. He is currently a Professor of Research at the Institute for Medical Research, IMI, Belgrade, Serbia. His major research area is the role of TGF-β in tumor progression and in endothelial cells, and recently has become interested in mesenchymal stem cells biology.
