Celebrating stem cells
Posted by Emma Kemp, on 1 November 2012
Last month was an exciting one for stem cell research. I’m sure you all saw how stem cells hit international headlines with the announcement of a Nobel Prize for John B. Gurdon and Shinya Yamanaka. I thought you might be interested to read reactions from several leading scientists and check out a film clip about the prize-winning work in our blog on eurostemcell.org
We’ve got a new short film all about reprogramming and iPS cells coming very soon too. Watch out for it going live on our website www.eurostemcell.org at the end of November or early December, in time for the formal Nobel Prize awards ceremony of 10th December.
We were also celebrating in October because it was Stem Cell Awareness day on the 3rd of the month. Researcher Christèle Gonneau helped us celebrate the day by giving us a great window into life as a stem cell biologist on twitter. You can check out a summary of her day’s tweets and pictures in our blog too.
You can keep up to speed on stem cell news and our activities by following @eurostemcell on Twitter or, if Twitter’s not your thing, say hello to us on Facebook or our website.
