Harrisburg University Research Symposium: Highlighting Research, Innovation, & Creativity

Stem cells have revolutionized research and applications for biomedical sciences. In combination with gene therapy as well as regenerative medicine, stem cells have led to several breakthrough technologies. Utilizing these advances, coupled with rDNA techniques, adult stem cells can be re-engineered to behave like embryonic stem cells. These induced Pluripotent Stem cells (iPSCs) can be introduced into the body in order to repair and rectify the underlying issues. (Class Project)
