Special Feature on Stem Cells: Current Research and Future Prospects
Throughout the year, Experimental & Molecular Medicine (EMM) highlights research into the clinical benefits for human health from experimental and translational research performed using specific molecular tools. In November 2013, EMM offers a series of reviews covering the state-of-the art in representative areas in stem cell research and, in addition, original research covering selected areas of stem cell biology and therapeutic applications.
