[6][7][8] He interned at Massachusetts General Hospital and completed his residency in neurology at the University of California, San Francisco.
[12][13][14] Through these studies, his laboratory has explored the basic mechanisms by which stem cells maintain a dormant, or "quiescent" state, when not engage in generation of new tissue.
[18] These findings have led to advances in studies of stem cell therapeutics in the broader field of regenerative medicine.
[19] In 2005, Rando's laboratory was the first to use the technique of heterochronic parabiosis to explore the effects of the systemic circulation on stem cell function.
[25] Their studies focus on physiologic, pharmacologic, genetic, and dietary interventions to reverse cellular aging and to produce therapies for aging-related diseases.
