Dr Robert Knight studied for a PhD in Molecular Evolution at the University of Reading before changing directions and pursuing postdoctoral research in the field of musculoskeletal development at the University of California, Irvine and the University of Sheffield. He moved to King’s College London as a BBSRC David Phillips Fellow in 2007 and his group is focused on the signals that direct the complex behaviour of progenitor cells during development of the vertebrate head. His current focus is to determine how progenitor cells are controlled during tissue regeneration and identify the factors that control them, using in vivo imaging and genetic manipulations.
