The usefulness of this information for future preclinical and clinical studies in HD is also discussed. Articles Recent Most accessed Recent articles Recent articles RSS 1.

An international peer-reviewed journal, it publishes high-quality open access research articles with a special emphasis on basic, translational and clinical research into stem cell therapeutics and regenerative therapies, including animal models and clinical trials. The journal also provides reviews, viewpoints, commentaries and reports. Article collections Thematic series Extracellular vesicles and regenerative medicine Edited by Jeffrey Karp, Kelvin Ng and Armand Keating Cross-journal collection Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells – an update Edited by Richard Schäfer and Selim Kuci View all article collections Editors' quotes "Stem cells have enormous potential for alleviating suffering for many diseases which currently have no effective therapy. The field has progressed to the clinic and it is important that this pathway is underpinned by excellent science and rigorous standards of clinical research. The journal provides an important avenue of publication in translational aspects of stem cell therapy spanning preclinical studies, clinical research and commercialization." Timothy O'Brien, Editor-in-Chief, Stem Cell Research & Therapy "The study of stem cells is one of the most exciting areas of contemporary biomedical research. We believe that Stem Cell Research & Therapy will act as a highly active forum for both basic and translational research into stem cell biology and therapies. Specifically, by developing this forum for cutting edge research, we hope that Stem Cell Research & Therapy will play a significant role in bringing together the critical information to synergize stem cell science with stem cell therapies."
