Funded Activity Summary

We have developed a new method to convert fat and other cell types into stem cells that can repair damaged tissues. We call these cells, induced multipotent stem cells or iMS cells. In this project we will identify the molecular changes that occur in a mature cell as it converts into a stem cell and the extent to which iMS contribute to different tissue types. These investigations will lay the foundation for human clinical trials using iMS cells.
