Some of the Players
ConclusionsA business can be built around manufacturing
almost any of the tools for Stem Cell research which precedes clinical testing.
Stem Cell research holds the promise of a new era in medicine, a Gold Rush of sorts.
Before any EUREKA moment, researchers are going to need picks and shovels to find the Gold.
In other words, before the FDA approves the use of manipulated cells for therapeutic purposes, investigators will need to completely understand the systems they’re working with .
