Research in Matthias Lutolf's lab is based on the interface of stem cell biology and biomolecular engineering to gain fundamental insight into how protein components of tissue-specific microenvironments, termed niches, control the behavior of multipotent adult stem cells such as hematopoietic stem cells (i.e. the stem cells that give rise to all blood cells).
