Preface

In this next volume in the Cell Biology and Translational Medicine series, we continue to explore the potential utility of stem cells in regenerative medicine. Chapters in this volume cover advances and challenges in applications of particular stem cell populations in a variety of diseases and conditions, and certain governance and policy issues and options. I remain very grateful to Gonzalo Cordova, the Associate Editor of the series and acknowledge his continuous support. I would also like to acknowledge and thank Sara Germans-Huisman, Assistant Editor, for her outstanding efforts in helping to get this volume to the production stages. A special thank you goes to Rathika Ramkumar and Anand Venkatachalam for their outstan
