stem cell therapy
MAHATMA GANDHI MEDICAL COLLEGE & RESEARCH INSTITUTE
Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth University
T he isolation of stem cells from human pre-implantation embryos has been considered the biggest breakthrough of the 21st century. Stem
cell research has great potential to transform modern clinical medicine, given the ability of stem cells to change themselves physiologically, morphing into distinct tis-sue types. These undifferentiated, self-renewing cells hold promise in a new era of reparative medicine by providing an unlimited supply of different tissue types suitable for transplantion therapy and can provide doc-tors with the hope and means to tackle illnesses such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, spinal cord injuries and insulin-dependent diabetes.
To take full advantage of their limitless potential requires highly-skilled, dedicated personnel and excel-lent facilities, all functioning under a forward-looking regulatory framework. To ignite interest in the minds of young researchers and physicians alike and to foster greater awareness about the nature, scope and future of Stem Cell therapy, we have organised this Interna-tional Symposium and invited scientists and doctors at the forefront of stem cell research and practice to afford you a unique opportunity to understand both the theoretical as well as practical aspects of this youngest and most promising branch of medical science.
