Inhaltsangabe

The series Advances in Stem Cell Biology is a timely and expansive collection of comprehensive information and new discoveries in the field of stem cell biology.

iPSCs in Tissue Engineering, Volume 11 addresses how induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are being used to advance tissue engineering.

Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into iPSCs by the expression of specific transcription factors. These cells have been transforming biomedical research over the last 15 years. This book will address the advances in research of how iPSCs are being used for the generation of different tissues and organs such as the lungs, trachea, salivary glands, skeletal muscle, liver, intestine, kidney, even the brain, and much more.

This volume is written for researchers and scientists interested in stem cell therapy, cell biology, regenerative medicine, and tissue engineering and is contributed by world-renowned authors in the field.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Dr. Alexander Birbrair received his bachelor’s biomedical degree from Santa Cruz State University in Brazil. He completed his PhD in Neuroscience, in the field of stem cell biology, at the Wake Forest School of Medicine under the mentorship of Osvaldo Delbono. Then, he joined as a postdoc in stem cell biology at Paul Frenette’s laboratory at Albert Einstein School of Medicine in New York. In 2016, he was appointed faculty at Federal University of Minas Gerais in Brazil, where he started his own lab. His laboratory is interested in understanding how the cellular components of different tissues function and control disease progression. His group explores the roles of specific cell populations in the tissue microenvironment by using state-of-the-art techniques. His research is funded by the Serrapilheira Institute, CNPq, CAPES, and FAPEMIG. In 2018, Alexander was elected affiliate member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC), and, in 2019, he was elected member of the Global Young Academy (GYA), and in 2021, he was elected affiliate member of The World Academy of Sciences (TWAS). He is the Founding Editor and Editor-in-Chief of Current Tissue Microenvironment Reports, and Associate Editor of Molecular Biotechnology. Alexander also serves in the editorial board of several other international journals: Stem Cell Reviews and Reports, Stem Cell Research, Stem Cells and Development, and Histology and Histopathology.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

The series Advances in Stem Cell Biology is a timely and expansive collection of comprehensive information and new discoveries in the field of stem cell biology. iPSC from Non-Human Species, Volume 10 addresses how important induced pluripotent stems cells are and how can they be used in patient-specific disease models. Somatic cells can be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells by the expression of specific transcription factors. These cells have been transforming biomedical research over the last 15 years. This volume will address the advances in research of how induced pluripotent stem cells from various, species such as: bovine, equine, non-human primate, rat, etc., are being used for treatment of different diseases. The volume is written for researchers and scientists in stem cell therapy, cell biology, regenerative medicine and organ transplantation; and is contributed by world-renowned authors in the field.
