Clinical translation of stem cell therapies: a bridgeable gap

Cell Stem Cell. 2010 Jun 4;6(6):508-12. doi: 10.1016/j.stem.2010.05.005.

Abstract

Stem cell scientists trying to reach patients often lack the multidisciplinary skills needed to overcome complex regulatory barriers and may feel deterred from pursuing clinical implementation. In order to help bridge this gap, we offer a European perspective based on our hands-on experience at the Andalusian Initiative for Advanced Therapies.
