Abstract

This book is about stem cells. Stem cells and their applications in clinical medicine, biotechnology, and drug development for pharmaceutical companies involve many facets of biology, from genetics, epigenetics, and biochemistry to synthetic scaffolds and three-dimensional architecture for tissue engineering. For this reason the most important molecular and cell biological principles needed to understand stem cells will be introduced to the reader in this chapter.
