Nature Research Round Table: Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Lines as Disease Models
Dr. Christine Mummery from the Leiden University Medical Center discusses the use of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) for disease modeling and what standards are required; including for genome integrity, routine checks, and journal requirements.
This presentation was part of a Round Table series titled “Challenges in Ensuring hPSC Quality”, hosted in partnership with Nature Research. Global experts gathered at the Springer Nature headquarters in London, UK, to tackle some of the most pertinent issues impacting the use of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), ranging from fundamental biology research to therapeutic applications.
