Matthew Emsak

Currently, the biotechnology industry is expanding at a phenomenal pace and majority of the students today decide to pursue a scientific career path. They desire to use the innovative and pioneering technologies to research and come out with breakthrough in their field. That is such an exhilarating prospect. Molecular Biologist Matthew Emsak was fascinated by science from a very young age. He has decided to progress in this field and used his impeccable problem-solving skills in order to improve diagnostic technologies. These skills made his career very challenging, rewarding and fascinating. He carries out laboratory work along with analyzing and interpreting data. At present, Matthew Emsak is working in an established laboratory, based in California. He has an expert and highly-skilled team of molecular biologists and engineers. At the laboratory, he and his team work on the development of DNA-based diagnostics tests for the detection of pathogens and genetic mutations. E...

Molecular Biologist Matthew Emsak has got new insights how stem cells transforms into brain cells that control leg movements. This surprising new discovery was observed in fruit flies and can help throw light on human brain development. About Stem Cells Stem Cells hold excellent medicinal properties. Their ability to metamorphose in other cells helps in repairing injuries and damages like – injuries from heart attack to brain damages. Matthew Emsak through his research found out that the stem cells develop and mature cells quickly even in Homo sapiens. Result of the Research To understand the development of human brain, the molecular biologist Matthew Emsak looked into a much simpler animal – fruit Fly. He started with stem cells, the undifferentiated cells that then develop into virtually any cell type in the body. In particular, he focused on the approximately 50 motor neurons that control the movement of each of a fruit fly's six legs. The research has help...
