Types of Stem Cells
Stem Cell Glossary
Learn essential stem cell terminology to better understand stem cell science, research, and treatments.
Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Induced pluripotent stem cells are cells that have been engineered in the lab by converting tissue-specific cells, such as skin cells, into cells that behave like embryonic stem cells. Learn more here.
Tissue-specific Stem Cells
Learn about tissue-specific stem cells (also referred to as somatic or adult stem cells) and how these stem cells can generate different cell types for the specific tissue or organ in which they live.
