Hartman's Collaborative Research Published in FASED Journal

Nate Hartman, associate professor of Biology at Stockton, along with Eric Moss, associate professor at Rowan School of Osteopathic Medicine and his graduate student Jennifer Romer-Seibert, recently had their research published in the FASEB Journal.

Their work explored that the expression of RNA-binding protein, LIN28, causes neural stem cells to prematurely develop into neurons. When this happens, the pools of progenitor cells deplete quickly. As a result, fewer neurons are actually produced.
