HY is a postdoctoral fellow in the Center for Cellular and Molecular Engineering, and is involved in research on stem cell based tissue regeneration.
Statutes concerning clinical medical research in general cover much of the stem cell-based research, and only a few countries have adopted legislation devoted to stem cell research per se.
Common naturally derived hydrogel materials used in stem cell-based research and in experimental models of SCI include collagen [14], hyaluronic acid [15], methylcellulose [16] and agarose [17], eventually functionalized with a laminin motif [18].
"Number one, I'm supporting stem-cell research," he said, pointing to a chart of a new Adelson medical research foundation that is funding some stem-cell based science.
It is currently lobbying widely for the development of stem cell research based on other sources, like umbilical cord or adult stem cells.
While Germany shares the second highest percentage of stem cell publications, Germany's stem cell policy is similar to US policy from 2001 to 2008, with restrictions on human embryonic stem cell (hESC) research based on the time the cells were derived [6].
Bush administration opposition to stem cell research is based on the argument that it requires destroying embryos, each potentially representing a human life.
The day Bush left for Europe, the National Institutes of Health published a remarkable report on stem-cell research, based largely on a review of more than twelve hundred scientific publications.
We've got Plouffe on The Today Show going, stem cell research, stem cell research!
Stem cell research meets aging research.
Regenerative medicine based primarily on stem cell biology research is a new approach to disease treatment largely focused on the correction of age-and pathology-related malfunction of organs and systems by the enhancement of tissue regeneration and substitution of dysfunctional and senescent cells, tissues, and organs.
