Jen-Yi Lee , PhD
Jen-Yi Lee holds a Ph.D. in Molecular and Cell Biology from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, USA, where she specialized in cell movements during C. elegans development. She went on to do postdoctoral research at the University of California, Berkeley, where she studied morphogenesis of Xenopus laevis. After taking a brief break from the bench, Jen returned to the University of California, Berkeley as a staff scientist, where she helped manage 20 light microscopes at a imaging core facility, and supported University researchers through teaching and consultation. She has been working at Leica Microsystems as an applications specialist since 2017.
Skeletal Muscle Adaptation and Fibrotic Diseases
The mechanisms of how skeletal muscle adapts to fibrotic pathologies can be investigated more efficiently with fast, high-contrast imaging of C2C12 mouse myoblast cells which is described in this…Read article
