About: David Lyons

Biography:

I received my B.Sc. (Neuroscience, 1999) and Ph.D. (Developmental Biology, 2003) from University College London, and then undertook postdoctoral work at Stanford University in the Department of Developmental Biology with Prof. William Talbot (2004-2009). In 2009, I joined the Centre for Neuroregeneration at the University of Edinburgh to establish my own independent research group, using zebrafish as a model organism to dissect mechanisms of nervous system formation.
