Stem Cell Biology and Cell Reprogramming

Stem cells and cell reprogramming have the remarkable potential to develop into many different cell types in the body. This holds an enormous promise to generate functional cells for cell based therapies, and to develop disease models for drug screening, toxicity testing and biomarker discovery.

This virtual special issue is focused on the stem cell biology and cell reprogramming and it will be covering topics based on laboratory investigations and the translation of clinical aspects from the bench towards to the patient care. We welcome papers on embryonic stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, adult and tissue-specific stem cells, and direct reprogramming. Topics based on Stem Cell Technologies, Mechanisms of Cell Differentiation and Reprogramming, Epigenetics, Organoids Models, and Regenerative Medicine will also be covered.

Note

Virtual Special Issue (VSI) is a collection of papers centered around a specific topic, led by an expert (Guest Editor) in the field. Virtual Special Issues are an important component of our journal and cover current hot topics within the scope of the journal.

All papers belonging to a Virtual Special Issue will be gathered together on a single webpage. They are published in the regular issues of the journal as soon as publishable, and labeled as belonging to the Virtual Special Issue. A link from each paper will take you to the Virtual Special Issue website.

Submissions to Virtual Special Issues will undergo the same rigorous peer-review process as regular papers submitted to the journal.
