Dr. Valerie Gouon-Evans, PharmD, PhD, is Associate Professor in the Center for Regenerative Medicine at Boston University, Boston Medical Center, Director of the Boston University Liver Biologist program, and Co-director of the Molecular and Translational Medicine PhD program. Dr Gouon-Evans has greatly contributed to the efficient generation of hepatocytes from mouse, human and macaque pluripotent stem cells by pioneering the use of BMP4 to induce hepatic specification. Currently, her research interests aim to harness liver regeneration using nucleoside-modified mRNA complexed to lipid nanoparticles, a technology that her lab has validated to induce transient expression of proteins in the liver to alleviate acute and chronic liver disease mouse models.
