Insight: Stem Cells
VolVolVol. 441, NoNoNo. 7097 pppppp1059-1102
In recent years, stem cells have been the subject of considerable excitement. Great progress has been made in understanding their mechanisms and unravelling their potential for therapeutic application. Widespread use of stem-cell-based therapies is still a long way off, but could one day benefit vast numbers of patients, including those with cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and heart disease.
This Nature Insight is accompanied by a special stem cells podcast, which features interviews with leading stem-cell researchers and a live discussion on the various scientific and ethical problems in this exciting field.
Readers are invited to join an web forum to exchange views and opinions raised by the Insight articles. There is also a podcast forum for issues discussed in the stem cells podcast.
