Amy Wagers, PhD

Forst Family Professor of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology, Faculty of Arts & Sciences, Harvard University

Dr. Amy Wagers is a Harvard College Professor and the Forst Family Professor and Co-Chair of the Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology at Harvard University. She is also a Principal Faculty member of the Harvard Stem Cell Institute, a Senior Investigator in the Section on Islet Cell and Regenerative Biology at the Joslin Diabetes Center and a member of the Paul F. Glenn Center for the Biology of Aging at Harvard Medical School.  Dr. Wagers’ laboratory investigates how changes in stem cell activity impact tissue homeostasis and repair throughout life, and how stem cells may be harnessed for regenerative medicine using cell transplantation and gene editing approaches.
