Emili Saló - Genetic Mutations

Author Information

Emili Saló is associated with the Department of Genetics, Microbiology and Statistics, and Institute of Biomedicine at the University of Barcelona, located in Catalonia, Spain. His research predominantly focuses on the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying regeneration processes, particularly in planarians, a group of flatworms known for their remarkable regenerative capabilities.

Research Contributions

Emili Saló has made significant contributions to the field of genetics, particularly in understanding the molecular processes behind planarian regeneration. His research has delved into various signaling pathways and gene families, such as the WNT-FRIZZLED-LRP5/6 signaling and Fox genes, exploring their roles in cell differentiation, proliferation, and death during regeneration. Notably, his work has identified key genes and pathways involved in the specification of posterior identity and the balance of cell proliferation and death, crucial for maintaining planarian homeostasis and regeneration.

Aliases

Throughout his academic career, Emili Saló has published under several variations of his name, including Emili Saló, E. Saló, Emili Salo, and E. Salo. These aliases are often found in different academic and research publications.
