Preface
Keeping in line with the current focus that personalized medicine should be the
future medicine, stem cells have received tremendous attention. In recognition of
the growing excitement and potential of stem cells for both the advancement of
biology and future clinical applications, we felt it timely to edit this book to
addressanddiscussthecurrentadvancesandtopicsonstemcells,coveringaspects
from stem cell nano-engineering, pluripotent stem cells, and cellular reprogram-
ming to regenerative medicine. We are pleased to provide Advances in Stem Cell
Research as a timely and comprehensive overview.
By itself, the field of stem cells has generated tremendous interest; however,
development in this area will also pave the way for a breakthrough within
regenerativemedicine.Inparallel,scientificdevelopmentsinthepost-genomicera
andachievementsinsystemsbiologywillallowforthenecessarydevelopmentof
personalized medicine.
We want to sincerely thank all authors who have contributed to this book for
their dedicated efforts and their excellent contributions. We hope that you, as a
reader, will enjoy this volume.
We are also grateful to Dr. Hamid Gourabi, Dr. Abdolhossein Shahverdi, and
Dr. Ahmad Vosough Dizaj for having faith in and supporting us throughout this
project. We also wish to acknowledge the great support provided by many at
Humana Press. A special thank you goes to our dedicated colleagues at Royan
Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Technology who, with their tireless commit-
ment toward stem cellresearch,have become crucial factors inencouraging usto
edit this book. We are grateful to Zahra Maghari for her help with collecting the
chapters and in the follow-up.
