Cell Biology and Translational Medicine, Volume 17: Stem Cells in Tissue Differentiation, Regulation and Disease

Much research has focused on the basic cellular and molecular biological  aspects of stem cells. Much of this research has been fueled by their  potential for use in regenerative medicine applications, which has in  turn spurred growing numbers of translational and clinical studies.  However, more work is needed if the potential is to be realized for  improvement of the lives and well-being of patients with numerous  diseases and conditions.
This book series 'Cell Biology and  Translational Medicine (CBTMED)' as part of Springer Nature’s  longstanding and very successful Advances in Experimental Medicine and  Biology book series, has the goal to accelerate advances by timely  information exchange. Emerging areas of regenerative medicine and  translational aspects of stem cells are covered in each volume.  Outstanding researchers are recruited to highlight developments and  remaining challenges in both the basic research and clinical arenas.  This current book is the 17th volume of a continuing series.
