In-Person
Hosted by: Division of Oral and Systemic Health Sciences
Dr. Jimmy Hu is an associate professor in the Section of Biosystems and Function at the UCLA School of Dentistry. Dr. Hu has a long-standing interest in developmental and stem cell biology and has focused his research on understanding tissue morphogenesis and stem cell-based renewal during his graduate study at Harvard University and postdoctoral training at UCSF. He joined the UCLA School of Dentistry in 2019 and has continued to investigate how organs are shaped and renewed, using teeth and craniofacial structures as model systems.
