Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Since the creation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), by the Nobel Prize laureate Dr. Shinya Yamanaka, many laboratories worldwide are working to generate and apply these cells to the investigation of the ethiopathogeny behind diseases and the search for new therapies against them. The aim of this Special Issue is to collect high-quality papers, fully dedicated to iPSCs and their applications, from top experts in this field. We particularly encourage researchers to submit comprehensive review papers and original articles that showcase the latest advancements in this area. By doing so, we aim to create a collection of high-quality papers that explore the potential of iPSCs and shed light on their diverse applications in addressing various challenges in medical research and treatment.
Dr. M. Esther Gallardo
