About programme
Stem cells are the vital self-renewing and undifferentiated cells that can give rise to different cell types in the body. Stem cells develop life from the zygote stage and help in maintaining the body throughout life. Stem cells provide immense scope for regenerative medicine. However, the isolation of stem cells from patients, culturing, preservation, and usage of stem cells are highly complicated as well as it is associated with many ethical concerns.
To overcome the usage of these stem cells, researchers have developed induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using genetic engineering technology. These iPSCs are developed from the patients' normal somatic cells, which are easy to isolate and do not attract many ethical concerns.
The scope of using induced pluripotent stem cells in higher research, pharmaceutical product development and in clinical medicine is becoming high and this expands the scope of applied regenerative medicine to a greater level.
Learning the complete basics of these induced pluripotent stem cells is vital for learners who want to shine in these stem cells and related applied sectors. This smart course aims to provide you with the necessary basics in iPSCs in a relatively shorter period and in a learning mode of your convenience.
