Journal Club: Efficient Generation of Human Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Corneal Endothelial Cells by Directed Differentiation
Regenerative Medicine Research Institute
Campus Sant Cugat
Disease and injury to the cornea are leading causes of blindness worldwide. The gold standard treatment for many corneal diseases relies on surgical replacement with cadaveric corneas. Nevertheless, there is a lack of available donor corneas. For this reason, the ability to generate corneal endothelial cells in vitro is of considerable clinical interest.
Speaker: Begoña Maria Bosch Canals, Regenerative Medicine Research Institute researcher.
'Journal Club' is a weekly meeting launched by the UIC Barcelona Regenerative Medicine Research Institute. During this activity articles are presented by researchers both from our team and from other groups with the aim of undertaking an in-depth literature review of the most significant and up-to-date literature in the field of Regenerative Medicine.
