Bio
Dr. Shwartz uses stem cells to explore why our bodies become less efficient at wound healing as we age. She is creating tools to explore how different genes influence wound healing over time, aiming to identify methods for rejuvenating aged stem cells, which could help to address non-healing and chronic wounds.
