Notes

CIRM Class: ASCI 581 Graduate Seminar

This course provides all incoming students in the Regenerative Medicine MS program with opportunity to review current problems and research in the field of stem cell biology. Students identify current stem cell research performed at laboratories associated with CIRM Bridges to Stem Cells host institutions and that is congruent with their interests. Students identify a specific host institution they wish to explore, become familiar with current research published from this laboratory and present it to the group, including discussion of the methodology employed and applicability to the field of regenerative medicine.
