Assays for Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells in Cord Blood
This webinar, by Dr. Bert Wognum, will provide an overview of the value of assessing hematopoietic progenitor cell content in cord blood. In addition to reviewing the current assays used, new methods incorporating automation will be discussed.
New Tools for the Ex Vivo Expansion of Human Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells
The development of standardized ex vivo HSPC expansion methods is needed to generate clinically relevant cell numbers for transplantation. This webinar will review key concepts in human HSPC biology, including standardized methods and recently demonstrated strategies for expanding HSPCs in culture. Additionally, STEMCELL products for the entire workflow of HSPC expansion will be covered, from isolation to expansion and differentiation, and analysis.
