BMC Medicine, an open access journal published by BioMed Central, is seeking submissions of original research offering novel translational and clinical insights into stem cell therapies, to be presented as part of an ongoing stem cell series. With this thematic series, which will have its own dedicated webpage, the journal aims to highlight some of the important and topical issues - including recent advances, controversies and challenges in stem cell research, and of course their clinical implications.
To kick-start the series, three specially commissioned articles for BMC Medicine highlight some of the most important and topical issues in clinical stem cell research. In a 'call to arms' for translational researchers, Hans Snoeck describes the as yet unrealised potential of differentiating human pluripotent stem cells into thymic epithelial cells.
In addition, three of BioMed Central's flagship journals have come together to present a promotional print issue of comment and review articles on stem cell biology and medicine, available at the BioMed Central stand at the ISSCR meeting in Toronto in June.
