Event Description : "Stem Cells: Myths And Realities" a talk by Dr. Jyotsna Dhawan.
As part of The Science and Technology Lectures series. 

Stem cells are the foundation cells of our bodies. Basic research shows that stem cells have the potential to specialize into all the different cell types in the human body, which makes them attractive candidates for regenerative therapies to restore diseased or damaged tissue. This lecture will briefly cover our current understanding of stem cell biology and address the hurdles that need to be overcome for their clinical use. Along the way, I will highlight examples of the myths and realities of stem cell applications, touch on the regulatory issues required to ensure their ethical application and hopefully convey some of the excitement in the field of stem cell science.

Speaker: Dr. Jyotsna Dhawan, CSIR-Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology, Hyderabad

Chair: Dr. Anna George, National Institute of Immunology
