This book describes a global assessment of stem cell engineering
research, achieved through site visits by a panel of experts to
leading institutes, followed by dedicated workshops. The assessment
made clear that engineers and the engineering approach with its
quantitative, system-based thinking can contribute much to the
progress of stem cell research and development. The increased need
for complex computational models and new, innovative technologies,
such as high-throughput screening techniques, organ-on-a-chip
models and in vitro tumor models require an increasing involvement
of engineers and physical scientists. Additionally, this book will
show that although the US is still in a leadership position in stem
cell engineering, Asian countries such as Japan, China and Korea,
as well as European countries like the UK, Germany, Sweden and the
Netherlands are rapidly expanding their investments in the field.
Strategic partnerships between countries could lead to major
advances of the field and scalable expansion and differentiation of
stem cells. This study was funded by the National Science
Foundation (NSF), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
