CReM in the News!
ARRA stimulus grant from the NIH Awarded to CReM: RC2 ‘Grand Opportunities (GO)’ Grant to study iPS Cells
CReM researchers have been awarded an RC2 GO grant to derive differentiated endodermal and hematopoietic lineages from human iPS cells.
The multicenter study, lead by Boston University Principal Investigators, Drs. Darrell Kotton and Gustavo Mostoslavsky, applies reprogramming technology to derive human iPS cells and then characterize their differentiated progeny using bioinformatics approaches.
