SCERG
The goal of the Stem Cell Engineering Research Group (SCERG) is to develop cell production systems for the ex vivo expansion of stem cells and/or their controlled differentiation into specific cell types or microtissues to generate the large numbers of high quality stem/progenitor cell subsets needed for Regenerative Medicine settings, as well as for the development of in vitro models for disease modelling and drug testing.


Key words: Stem Cell Engineering, Bioprocessing of Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells, Clinical Manufacturing of Stem Cell-based Products, Stem Cell-based disease modelling and drug screening
