Stem Cells and Translational Medicine
Stem cells possess the unique ability to differentiate into various cell types and self-renew. Translational medicine focuses on applying lab discoveries to develop patient therapies, Advances in stem cell technology, including induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), have further enhanced their applicability in personalized medicine. However, challenges such as ethical concerns, tumorigenicity, and the need for standardized protocols remain.
