In parallel to the active search for therapeutic and industrial applications of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), designing automated means of producing those cells is a timely goal. Slow-turning lateral vessels (STLVs) with low shear stress have shown promise for expanding the cells at the emb...

Substitutive cell therapy using fetal striatal grafts has demonstrated preliminary clinical success in patients with Huntington's disease, but the logistics required for accessing fetal cells preclude its extension to the relevant population of patients. Human embryonic stem (hES) cells theoretic...

Primate nonhuman and human embryonic stem (ES) cells provide a powerful model of early cardiogenesis. Furthermore, engineering of cardiac progenitors or cardiomyocytes from ES cells offers a tool for drug screening in toxicology or to search for molecules to improve and scale up the process of ca...
