In medical research, method optimization evaluates ways to minimize or maximize specific parameters of a study. Optimization can involve parameters such as reducing the costs associated with a procedure, limiting the materials required to develop an assay, or obtaining maximal productivity from a technique.
Cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as well as engineered heart muscles offer great potential for regenerative applications by CM transplantation, f...
For optimal use of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) it is essential to identify lines that are fully reprogrammed and of high quality with proven pluripotency in terms of differe...
