Stem Cell Engineering

Manipulating cells for downstream applications

Stem cell engineering requires introduction of new genetic content into a cell. One specific type of stem cell engineering is reprogramming by conversion of somatic cells into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), which can be accomplished with our portfolio of non-integrating technologies by viral delivery or episomal plasmids. Once cell lines have been established, genomic editing and manipulation of iPSCs into other cell types allows for the building of cell models to better answer biological questions.
