Advances in Stem Cell Research discusses recent advances in stem cell science, including therapeutic applications. This volume covers such topics as biomanufacturing iPS cells for therapeutic applications, techniques for controlling stem cell fate decisions, as well as current basic research in such areas as germ line stem cells, genomics and proteomics in stem cell research. It is a useful book for biology and clinical scientists, especially young investigators and stem cell biology students who are newly entering the world of stem cells research. The editors hope that the new knowledge and research outlined in this book will help contribute to new therapies for a wide variety of diseases that presently afflict humanity.
Stem cells, whose impact will be revolutionary, provide enormous opportunities for both biological and future clinical applications. This book addresses state-of-the art concepts on stem cell nano-engineering, pluripotent stem cells, and cellular reprogramming as well as regenerative medicine.
Advances in Stem Cell Research is an important volume, as it is comprehensive and covers all new aspects of stem cell biology, from basic research to clinical applications. There are 18 chapters written by internationally renowned stem cell scientists. This up-to-date text will give the reader a complete understanding of the exciting stem cell science and its applications. It will serve as a valuable reference for researchers and students.
A valuable books for postgraduate students and advanced undergraduate students in cell biology, genetics, developmental biology, and biotechnology; stem cell researchers and clinicians; engineers in the field of regenerative medicine.
