Stem Cell Biology

Stem Cell Biology: Historical and Future Perspectives
The advent of advanced gene editing techniques has accelerated the potentials of stem cell therapy and regenerative medicine. Students will be brought to the forefront of basic stem cell biology by studying its history, as well as its future possibilities. Through lectures, critical reading, writing, and informed discussions, we will use primary scientific literature to explore basic stem cell biology, cell differentiation, gene editing, and regenerative medicine. In addition to written summaries, students will complete a final paper based on a recent scientific paper in the field of stem cell biology. (BIOL 0145)
