In contrast to most other vertebrates,teleost fish exhibit an unparalleled capacity to generate stem cells in both the intact and the injured adult brain.My research is focused on the occurrence, the extent and the fate of aneuploid cells (genome-modified individual cells characterized by the loss or gain of whole chromosomes) generated in the teleostean brain. Aneuploidy arises through various chromosome segregation defects during the mitotic divisions of newly-generated cells in the adult brain. Aneuploidy is observed in ~80% of the newly-generated stem cells of the adult brain,but occurs...
