Stem cells yield nature’s blueprint for body’s vasculature
A team led by Igor Slukvin, a University of Wisconsin–Madison professor, describes the developmental pathway that gives rise to the different types of cells that make up human vasculature.
Study shows stem cells fiercely abide by innate developmental timing
Scientists from the Morgridge Institute for Research and UW–Madison are studying whether stem cell differentiation rates can be accelerated in the lab and made available to patients faster.
