Biography
Jeremy Green is an experimental and theoretical developmental biologist working on morphogens, morphogenesis and the innovative understanding of fundamental mechanisms of shape, pattern and structure formation that make and repair the body.
He was a co-discoverer with Professor Sir Jim Smith of the dose-threshold action of growth factor morphogens, laying the groundwork for directed-differentiation approaches to stem cell use.
Formerly a Miller Fellow at UC Berkeley and Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School, his group at King’s College London investigates morphogen action, self-organising Reaction-Diffusion Turing patterning and physical morphogenesis of oral, craniofacial and ectodermal structures using molecular methods, advanced microscopy, image analysis and computational modelling.
Prof. Green is Vice-Dean International (Research) and works to encourage international collaborations and partnerships at postgraduate, postdoctoral and investigator levels.
Research
Green Lab
The Green Laboratory investigates tissue morphogenesis and the action of morphogens.
Centre for Craniofacial & Regenerative Biology
Our research goes beyond the mouth. If we understand how the entire face and head forms, we can repair damage and regenerate cells. If we unravel the causes of diseases, we can treat patients successfully. If we solve these problems, our discoveries will improve health worldwide.
From Developmental Biology to Regenerative Medicine
Understanding organ development and tissue regeneration provides a framework for elucidating disease mechanisms as well as for developing new therapeutics.
