Christine L. Mummery

Prof. Mummery has pioneered studies on cardiomyocytes from human embryonic stem cells (hPSC) and was among the first to inject them in mouse heart after myocardial infarction. Mummery was the first to derive human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) in Netherlands and is leading in their use for cardiovascular disease modelling and safety pharmacology. In 2010, she established the LUMC hiPSC core facility. Provided by Wikipedia
