He trained as a Cell and Developmental Biologists in the laboratory of Dr. John Engelhardt at the University of Iowa where he received his Ph.D. in 2006 studying lung biology and Wnt signaling. Dr. Driskell did his post-doctoral training in Dr. Fiona Watt\u2019s Laboratories at Cambridge University and King\u2019s College London in the UK, where he established a functional fibroblast lineage hierarchy that is important in regulating the architectural nature of skin development and wound repair.

Skin is a complex organ that forms scars during the healing process of wounds. Fibroblasts, the key cells responsible for the formation of skin structure during development also play a crucial role in wound healing. By understanding how to control the function of fibroblasts, we may be able to improve the regenerative healing process in wounds and have potential implications for anti-aging treatments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
