Regular biography
Prof. Dr. Joel Zindel is a Professor in the Department of BIO at ETH Zurich. His research focuses on tissue repair, particularly the cellular and molecular pathways involved in injury, repair, and regeneration. His work explores how injuries are detected and repaired, with implications for both basic biology and biomedical applications. Zindel's research addresses challenges such as chronic wounds, scarring, fibrosis, and cancer, which arise when tissue repair mechanisms fail or become dysregulated. His laboratory investigates the regenerative responses that restore tissue function and architecture, aiming to improve clinical outcomes.
