Soon women will be able to reproduce on their own.
This statement may scare some of you or may be comforting to know, but it’s all thanks to the power of stem cells. I have with me an esteemed guest Dr. Alessandro Prigion on the show this week.
Dr. Alessandro Prigion is a professor of Pediatric Metabolic Medicine at the Medical Faculty of Heinrich Heine University in Dusseldorf, Germany and Editor-in-Chief of the journal Stem Cell Research (Elsevier). He’s the person you talk to when you need to learn anything about stem cells.
In this episode we discuss:
👉 What are stem cells
👉 The use cases of stem cells
👉 The ethical issues it poses
👉 The power of cell reprogramming
