Anna-Katerina Hadjantonakis
Anna-Katerina (Kat) Hadjantonakis received a BSc in Biochemistry in 1990, and PhD in Molecular Genetics in 1995, from Imperial College, London. From 1996 to 20013 she undertook postdoctoral studies with Andras Nagy and Janet Rossant at the Samuel Lunenfeld Research Institute, Toronto, and Ginny Papaioannou at Columbia University, New York. In 2004 she established her independent laboratory. She is currently a Member of the Sloan Kettering Institute and a Professor at Cornell University.
Kat Hadjantonakis serves on the editorial boards of the journals Development, Developmental Cell, Developmental Biology, BMC Biology, and Genesis. She is the Section Editor in Early Patterning at BMC Developmental Biology, and deputy editor-in-chief at Biology Open.
The long-term goal of research in the Hadjantonakis lab is to decipher mechanisms underlying cell lineage specification and tissue morphogenesis. They use the mouse as a predominant experimental mammalian model. They focus on a continuum of events taking place within the mammalian embryo that are bookended by two distinct but interrelated biological processes: blastocyst formation and gastrulation. Quantitative single-cell resolution analyses are a hallmark approach they take.
