Ibon Garitaonandia was a postdoctoral fellow at Jeanne Loring's laboratory at the Center for Regenerative Medicine at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI). Ibon received his bachelor's degree in Chemistry from the University of the Basque Country and his doctoral degree in Biochemistry from the University of Florida. During his graduate work at the Lyons lab, he studied a family of human proteins known as the PAQRs and their incidence in Type II diabetes. After completion of his doctoral degree, he began his postdoctoral work in the Crossin lab at the Department of Neurobiology at TSRI, where he studied the involvement of mitochondria in neuronal development. He later moved to the Loring lab at the Center for Regenerative Medicine at TSRI to pursue his true passion, human embryonic stem cell (hESC) research. He is currently studying the role that different culture conditions have on the genetic stability of hESCs and also working on the generation of induced pluripotent stem (IPS) cells from ALS patients.
