Jan Ellenberg

Jan Ellenberg is a scientist who studies how cells grow, divide, and develop. She focuses on understanding the tiny structures inside cells, like chromosomes and cell skeletons, to see how they work together during cell division and specialization. Her research helps explain normal cell functions and what goes wrong in diseases like cancer. By examining the mechanisms of cell behavior at a detailed level, she contributes to advancing medical science and developing potential treatments. Her work combines biology, microscopy, and technology to explore the fundamental processes that sustain life.
