Stem Cell Research and Gene Therapy: Questions, Solutions and Current Frontiers

1 credits · Graduate

This lecture series will cover modern approaches to stem cell biology, regenerative medicine and gene therapy. Lectures will include a broad introduction to the day’s topic, followed by in depth discussion of one specific recent example- preferably from the speaker’s own laboratory-that addresses an imminent question in the field. Relevant research articles will be assigned as background reading. Students are expected to become thoroughly familiar with these materials prior to each class meeting.
