Lineage tracing provides insights into several fundamental biological questions:
Cell Fate Determination: How do cells decide their specific roles and functions? Developmental Biology: How do organisms develop from a single cell into complex tissues and organs? Tissue Homeostasis: How do tissues maintain their structure and function over time? Regenerative Medicine: How can we harness stem cells to repair or replace damaged tissues? Cancer Research: How do cancerous cells originate and proliferate?
