About the Author
Since 1995, Jamie A. Davies has run his own laboratory at the University of Edinburgh, with a multi-disciplinary focus on discovering how mammalian organs construct themselves and how we can use this knowledge to build new tissues and organs for those in need. He has published over 100 research papers in the field of mammalian development, published a major specialist monograph (Mechanisms of Morphogenesis, Academic Press, 2005,2013), and edited three multi-author books in the fields of development, stem cells, and tissue engineering. He is a Fellow of the Society of Biology, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine, and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. He served as Editor-in-Chief of the journal, Organogenesis, from the foundation of the journal in 2004 until 2012.
