The Institute for Stem Cell Research (ISCR) is a world-leading centre for multidisciplinary research in mammalian stem cell biology.
ISCR and clinical research groups within the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine of the University of Edinburgh make up the new Scottish Centre for Regenerative Medicine (SCRM).
|
Recognised globally as a centre of excellence in stem cell research
and technology, the ISCR is dedicated to developing an understanding
of the mechanisms underlying stem cell self-renewal and differentiation
processes.
Indeed, our mission is to acquire the basic knowledge and understanding
of stem cells and cell specification required for development of
regenerative therapies to treat human disease and injury.
Ultimately we seek to provide scientific foundations for the application
of cell replacement therapies in treatment of human disease and
injury.
