Abstract

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing theresources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject andinvestigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source,and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.The digestive tract is an inter-connected organ system essential for the survival of all vertebrates. The digestive tract forms from an embryonic gut tube that undergoes regional patterning and then morphogenesis to define the specialized function of each organ along the digestive tract. Of human live births every year, 1:3000 have malformations in the digestive tract that must be surgically treated immediately. Dr. Theodosiou's research primarily focuses on the molecular mechanisms that determine patterning and morphogenesis of the gut tube in the embryo to gain understanding of human abnormalities.
