Current Issues and Regulations in Tendon Regeneration and Musculoskeletal Repair with Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Download2011-11-01
Mesenchymal stem cells are multipotent stromal cells residing within the connective tissue of most organs. Their surface phenotype has been well described. Most commonly, mesenchymal stem cells demonstrate the ability to differentiate into mesenchymal tissues (bone, catailge, fat, etc...),...

Establishing Translational Research Pipelines for Smart Devices
2012-09-05
The development of a translational research path has traditionally been a haphazard approach, filtering technologies so that the ‘best of breed’ may ultimately succeed. The conversion ratio of brilliant ideas to useful devices remains suboptimal, as many ‘fail to progress’. The reality of...

Chettiar, K., Pilarski, P., Grange, S., Smitham, P., Jell, G., Loizidou, M., Arestu, M.
Integrating data services across the life science spectrum illustrates the design and development of novel therapies in terms of Translational Research (TR) paths. The aim is to build an ‘open’ registry from multiple centres by allowing for open archiving of key characteristics of materials used...

Cleary, Stuart, Costar, Allison, Prior, Jacqueline
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine if an individual with ALS and frontotemporal lobar dementia can learn a volitional airway protection technique and, if so, does this treatment have a beneficial effect on respiration and swallowing?
