We’re delighted to welcome Future Science Prize 2024 winner Hongkui Deng @pku1898.bsky.social to the speaker lineup at the upcoming @CellSymposia #CSStemCells2025. Submit an abstract for a chance to join him in LA in November! http://dlvr.it/TLn6XX
Scientists have created the first 3D mini-lungs complete with their own functioning blood vessel networks, unlocking new insights for pulmonary vascular disease. ➡️ bit.ly/4kmCrxB
Happy to share our review at Cell Stem Cell as part of their Hallmarks series. As always, a pleasure to work with friends and colleagues Anne Brunet (@brunetlab.bsky.social) and Peggy Goodell(@goodell-lab.bsky.social).
UCLA’s Translational Cell Therapy Lab partners with stem cell researchers to build life-changing therapies — all while mentoring the next generation scientists who’ll carry this critical work forward. 🧬 Read more: ucla.in/45kYAbz #CellTherapy#RegenerativeMedicine
A UCLA study suggests that common antidepressants could enhance the immune system’s ability to fight #cancer and suppress tumor growth. Repurposing these existing FDA-approved drugs could speed up the process of bringing new cancer treatments to patients. stemcell.ucla.edu/news/common-...
Another life-saving treatment from Dr. Donald Kohn's group at UCLA and collaborators. Congratulations to the incredible team of investigators. Another milestone for the miracles of cell and gene therapy.
A new study in @nejm.org reports that an investigational gene therapy restored immune function in 9 children with LAD-I, a rare & life-threatening immune disorder. Those children are now living symptom-free 2 years after treatment in clinical trials co-led by Dr. Donald Kohn at UCLA.
I am excited to share a recent publication from the lab, spearheaded by senior scientist Di Wu, using a bioinstructive nanocapsules to orchestrate the temporal delivery of growth factors in order to promote stem cell-mediated tissue engineering in vivo.
