Stanford University Stem Cell Institute

Stanford University’s Stem Cell Institute is a research center dedicated to studying and developing treatments using stem cells—special cells capable of becoming various types of tissue. The institute's work aims to understand how stem cells can repair or replace damaged organs and tissues, potentially leading to therapies for conditions like neurodegenerative diseases, heart disease, and diabetes. By combining basic scientific research with clinical applications, the institute strives to advance regenerative medicine and improve patient care, fostering innovation through collaboration among scientists, clinicians, and students.
