Dr. Jenny Wang's fluorescent microscopy image earns a spot in NYSTEM publication. - Neural Stem Cell Institute, Rensselaer NY

Neural Stem Cell Institute Scientist, Dr. Jenny Wang’s fluorescent microscopy view of the lateral surface of the subventricular zone (SVZ) in the lateral ventricle of the adult mouse brain won a spot in the NYSTEM 2014 Annual Meeting program and NYSTEM website. New York Stem Cell Science (NYSTEM) supports and advocates for stem cell science in New York State.

JYWang pics — This region harbors neural stem cells that continue to generate new neurons throughout life, and it is the largest neurogenic niche in the adult brain. Represented in red are stem cell processes emerging between the ependymal cells (outlined in blue) to receive nutrients and signals circulating through the lateral ventricle.

“Thank you NYSTEM for recognizing our work. We are proud to share the image with all New York stem cell researchers. ” – Jenny Wang, M.D.
