Advancements in Stem Cell Research
Stem cell research has progressed from the controversy surrounding embryonic stem cells to engineering cells for specific pathways. Synthetic biology has allowed genetic engineering of cells, such as induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs), which can be reprogrammed from any somatic cell in the body. IPSC-derived cells have shown regenerative potential, demonstrated by successful engraftment of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain for Parkinson's disease. IPSCs also offer the potential for standardized therapies and increased survival rates.
