HEMATOPOIESIS AND EARLY T-CELL DIFFERENTIATION

Lineage commitment is a fundamental process that is initiated during t he early stages of embryogenesis. Ultimately, this leads to the genera tion of the humoral and cellular arms of the immune system. In a recen t workshop, researchers from the diverse fields Of embryology, haemat ology and immunology gathered to address the topic of early T-cell dif ferentiation.
