Welcome to the introduction of Stem Cell Biology.
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to self-renew and
differentiate into specialized cell types. They are critical for tissue
development, reproduction, regeneration, and maintaining homeostasis. This
course will provide students with the foundational knowledge needed to
understand, examine and dissect the science of stem cells and their use in
scientific research. This advanced high school course will expand on the different
concepts of pluripotency of a stem cell, how do stem cells revive organs, and
the power of stem cells in scientific research.
