Researchers from the Harvard Medical School have developed a new automated multiplex technology that will enable biotech labs to engineer entire pathways and genomes at an unprecedented rate, catapulting cell programming to a whole new level. Continue reading…
Physicians from Jewish Hospital conducted the first adult cardiac stem cell procedure on a 66-year-old man, who, as a result of congestive heart failure, had permanent scarring on his heart muscle. Continue reading…
Dr Zannos Grekos MD delivers a presentation in Washington DC about stem cell research. Stem cells are being used for the regeneration of tissue and organs. He highlights the advantages and disadvantages of each type of stem cell, from embryonic to cord, to adult stem cells. The basic features of stem cells are that they are able to self renew and also differentiate into effecter cells. This means that they can be educated to regenerate the specific organ that needs treatment.

Dipnarine Maharaj, MD

Dr. Dipnarine Maharaj is the Medical Director and founder of the South Florida Bone Marrow/Stem Cell Transplant Institute, one of the few completely outpatient bone marrow/stem cell transplant facilities in the country. He was also involved in the establishment of bone marrow/ stem cell transplant programs at the University of Miami and for other communities in Florida. He has been involved with clinical research studies using stem cells in the areas of cardiac regeneration, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer treatments. Most recently, he has secured an Investigator-initiated IND from the FDA to study a novel treatment of solid tumors using only healthy white blood cells. His innovative approach to medicine has earned him international recognition.

At the upcoming A4M WORLD STEM CELL CLINICAL SUMMIT, to be held in conjunction with theAnti-Aging Conference: Clinical Applications for In-Office Procedures in San Jose, California (September 9-12, 2009), Dr. Maharaj will present, Stem Cells and Bone Marrow Transplants: Current Medical Applications and Clinical Studies in Regenerative Medicine, on Saturday, September 12th.

The International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) has issued a statement reiterating the importance of embryonic and adult stem cell research. The move comes following results of a recent study led by Douglas Melton, co-director of the Institute and a founding member of the ISSCR, where non-insulin producing cells were transformed into insulin-producing cells via a technique known as direct reprogramming. Continue reading…
