Windham Press is committed to bringing the lost cultural heritage
of ages past into the 21st century through high-quality
reproductions of original, classic printed works at affordable
prices.
This book has been carefully crafted to utilize the original images
of antique books rather than error-prone OCR text. This also
preserves the work of the original typesetters of these classics,
unknown craftsmen who laid out the text, often by hand, of each and
every page you will read. Their subtle art involving judgment and
interaction with the text is in many ways superior and more human
than the mechanical methods utilized today, and gave each book a
unique, hand-crafted feel in its text that connected the reader
organically to the art of bindery and book-making.
We think these benefits are worth the occasional imperfection
resulting from the age of these books at the time of scanning, and
their vintage feel provides a connection to the past that goes
beyond the mere words of the text.

This Guide lists companies worldwide that are involved in the
business of stem cell research. Besides companies actively
developing stem cell-based therapeutics, the Guide lists for-profit
umbilical cord blood stem cell banks as well as companies that
provide supplies and services to stem cell researchers. More than
200 companies are included -- 206 to be exact We do not claim that
this is the definitive list of stem cell research firms. Companies
(and executives) come and go all the time, while others refocus
their corporate strategies toward nearer term product goals for
financial reasons, etc. It's also important to point out that
larger pharmaceutical and biotech firms are performing stem
cell-related research intramurally in isolated business units or in
partnerships with younger, smaller firms. Examples of this
phenomenon include StemCells, Inc.'s acquisition of Stem Cell
Sciences, Inc., and PerkinElmer's acquisition of ViaCell, Inc.
Partnerships also abound. Pfizer agreed to commercialize a stem
cell product (Multistem) with Athersys, Inc., of Cleveland, Ohio.
Other examples of these relationships include Novo Nordisk's
(Denmark) collaboration with Sweden's Cellartis on stem cell
treatments for diabetes; Johnson & Johnson's investments in
Novocell and Tengion (East Norriton, Pa.); GlaxoSmithKline's
investment in Harvard University's stem cell institute; and
Novartis's and Roche's investments in Cellerix (Spain). This volume
contains information about the big pharmaceutical entities only
sporadically and referentially. Nevertheless, the Guide's
comprehensive listings contain accurate contact information,
up-to-date lists of senior management, overviews of corporate
missions and research activities, and Web links to
financial/funding/investor pages and corporate news pages, where
available. Companies are listed alphabetically within major market,
product or research category.
