Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Stem cells have been used to generate new cells to replace damaged organs or tissues, and to evaluate the cell-type-specific disease mechanisms and genetics involved in the development of diseases and disorders. Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) allow researchers to create in vitro disease modeling using patient-specific PSCs and to develop patient-specific therapies. We are pleased to invite you and your co-workers to submit your original research articles reporting on stem cell-based disease modeling, engineering, and therapy, including the molecular and pathophysiological mechanisms underpinning its development. We encourage the submission of original manuscripts and review articles spanning basic to clinical research, including pharmacological interventions to prevent and/or ameliorate disease.
