Taking lab-grown blood stem cell to the clinic
About the project:
Following their world-first discovery for how to create blood stem cells in the lab that closely resemble those in the human body, this project will map the steps to take their stem cell derived blood stem cells towards a first in human clinical trial to demonstrate feasibility, safety and efficacy.
