Scope of this Market Tutorial
This tutorial is designed to provide a comprehensive analysis of the field of epigenetics and cellular reprogramming as they are impacting the broader stem cells research space in a profound manner vis-à-vis the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). This tutorial examines the technical as well as commercial aspects of the iPSCs space illustrating methodologies for generation, features/benefits of various methods for generation, end-user applications in research, drug discovery screening, and market potential for therapeutics in the future.
This tutorial also presents an analysis of the cancer stem cells (CSCs) space—their biology, characterization, market trends, and clinical trials pipeline. In this manner, this course synthesizes detailed information relating to two of the key areas of intensive research in the broader stem cells space: iPSCs and CSCs.
Epigenetics, Reprogramming, iPSCs
- Biological Significance and Role of Epigenetics in the Stem Cells Field
- Methods of Reprogramming
o Safe versus Unsafe Reprogramming
o Clinically-relevant Reprogramming
- iPSC Characterization Methodologies
- iPSC Research Marketplace: Vendors offering products, quantitative market shares, market sizing, and growth rates
- iPSCs for Drug Discovery and Toxicity Screening: Vendors offering products, quantitative market shares, market sizing, and growth rates
- iPSCs for Therapeutics: Market drivers, therapeutics areas, and opportunities, convergence with hESCs
Cancer Stem Cells
- Biological Relevance
- Molecular Mechanisms in vivo
- Research Trends
- Clinical Trials Analysis
This course draws upon primary research data collected by Select Biosciences as part of its continuing tracking of the various segments of the stem cells marketplace and focuses on qualitative as well as quantitative analysis of the space.
