Zachary Laboratory

Professor Zachary's Research is supported by funding from the British Heart Foundation, his work investigates how the essential angiogenic factor, Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), signals endothelial cells form new blood vessels, with major interests in signalling in endothelial cell migration, and the role of Neuropilin-1. These questions are addressed using diverse techniques in cell and molecular biology, in-vivo zebrafish and genetically altered mutant mice models.
