New Insights into Blood Vessel Formation: Vera Janssen Maps Vascular DevelopmentNext week, Vera Janssen will defend her PhD thesis, unveiling new discoveries about how blood vessels form, remodel, and sometimes malfunction. Her research not only advances our understanding of vascular development but also opens doors to potential treatments for vascular diseases.
