ISF Institute of Stem Cell Research
The ISF investigates the basic molecular and cellular mechanisms for stem cell maintenance and stem cell differentiation. On this basis, the ISF develops approaches for the replacement of degenerated cell types, either by activation of endogenous stem cells or by re-programming other endogenous cells for repair.
