Dr. Elliott J. Hagedorn is a cell and developmental biologist with expertise in hematopoiesis, stem cell biology and vascular heterogeneity. Research in the Hagedorn Lab utilizes a combination of genetics, genomics and advanced live cell imaging in zebrafish to understand how blood and cancer cells migrate into and out of distinct tissues and organs. The goal of this work is to elucidate novel molecular mechanisms that can be therapeutically targeted to regulate cell migration in a tissue-specific fashion - to inhibit it in certain contexts (e.g., inflammatory diseases and cancer metastasis) and promote it in others (e.g., stem cell transplantation and cell-based therapies). Dr. Hagedorn received his PhD from Duke University for his work on basement membrane transmigration in the laboratory of Dr. David Sherwood. He completed postdoctoral training with Dr. Leonard Zon at Boston Children’s Hospital/Harvard Medical School. Dr. Hagedorn has taught in courses at Purdue, Duke, Harvard and in the Embryology Course at the MBL in Woods Hole, MA; his research has been funded by grants from the National Institutes of Health, Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the Helen Hay Whitney Foundation.
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Accessibility
My research group is a diverse team of scientists from different countries and from different parts of the U.S. Our lab culture is defined by the unique perspectives and experiences that we each bring with us. We aim to create a safe space for all members to learn, grow and succeed in their life goals, and we are committed to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in the sciences. Acknowledging that we all have a role to play, the members of our lab are dedicated to welcoming and celebrating individuals of all races, ethnicities, social backgrounds, religion, gender, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, veteran status and national origin. Myself and several members of my group serve on a BU-BMC anti-racism committee and we also lead a summer research program for local high school students from underserved and underrepresented backgrounds.
