Information and Resources for Stem Cells, Solving
One of the difficulties with stem cells is that they have a limited lifespan within the laboratory setting. To keep using the stem cells in an effective way, researchers constantly have to obtain fresh stem cells from donors. Issues in Stem Cell Supplies This process is both time-consuming and costly, …
Being overweight carries a number of health risks, but where you carry that extra weight can increase the risk even further. One important area of research is to learn how and why some people are more likely to gain weight around their midsection – known as visceral fat. Stem cells …
There is still much we do not know about how autism develops, which makes it more challenging to find new treatments and ways of addressing the disorder. Recently, however, stem cells have shown promise in helping safely develop treatments for autism. What is Autism? Autism is a disorder that relates …
While stem cell research is widely recognised and funded in the United Kingdom (UK), policies and efforts in other parts of the world vary a great deal. Stem cell policies specifically for UK research are covered in depth in the article titled Policies for Stem Cell Research. It’s interesting to …
There are various ways to obtain more information on stem cells and you may wish to keep abreast of the newest developments in the field. For those who are suffering from diseases that stem cells are currently treating such as leukaemia, your interest may be more immediate. You might currently …
Stem cells continue to be an important topic in science and they comprise one of the most exciting areas of research today. The enthusiasm for stem cell research relates to the vast potential of stem cells to treat an enormous range of diseases, particularly ones that have high morbidity and …
Stem cells have the potential to treat a vast number of debilitating diseases in Britain but conversely and surprisingly to many people, they also have the potential to trigger the growth of cancers. While we have known for some time that there is a link between stem cells and cancer …
Stem cells have generated such an enormous amount of interest, in part, because of their applications related to areas such as fertility and genetics. In that same light, their interest for solving reproductive challenges has also generated a great deal of controversy. This is particularly true in the application of …
If you imagine the concept of something that is partly human and partly comprised of another animal, then you will now be familiar with one of the common misconceptions about cybrids and the subsequent controversy around their creation and use. Cybrids are the result of experiments that involve the fusion …
Stem cell research holds enormous potential for treating a broad spectrum of diseases but before that potential can even begin to be harnessed, there must be a clear pathway to obtaining the research needed to make stem cell therapies a reality. Since the advent of stem cell research, one barrier …
