Optimizing cryopreservation: Serum-free cell freezing medium
Cryopreservation is an integral part of biomedical research and clinical applications. However, maintaining cell viability and function during freezing and thawing can be challenging. Serum-free cryopreservation media formulations are advanced solutions that can be used instead of serum-containing freezing media to maintain cell function while ensuring reproducibility and standardization — read on to learn why….

Mesenchymal stem cells: why optimizing manufacturing processes is key for a successful application
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the up-and-coming stars of cell therapy. They are able to differentiate, are very adaptable and can reduce inflammation, making them ideal for regenerative medicine approaches. But the demand for MSCs is far greater than supply. Pharmaceutical companies are racing to produce commercial-scale quantities of MSCs while guaranteeing quality standards….

3D cancer model
De-skilling 3D tumor models Tissue-engineered 3D cancer models have grown in popularity with recent advances in cancer research. 3D models are more biomimetic than 2D cell monolayers cultured on tissue culture plastic. Examples are spheroids, tumorspheres, organoids, PDX and lately, tumoroids, which differ by origin (cell line or patient-derived), size, the complexity of cellular architecture and tumor environment….

Stem cell therapy scientist: Finding inspiration outside his comfort zone
Crossing the border between medical and biomechanical research fuels the research of stem cell specialist Dr. Diego Correa. We talked to the Colombian-born stem cell scientist, a former clinician with training in mechanical engineering, about his studies with mesenchymal stem cells and their potential clinical applications in cell-based therapy. Soon Correa is going to publish what he believes will be his most important contribution to this field….

A Home for Cancer Stem Cells: 3D Tumorspheres
Many scientists working in oncology focus on cancer stem cells (CSCs). Targeting these cells specifically could improve cancer therapy significantly. Because CSCs rely heavily on their environment, three-dimensional cultivation offers the unique opportunity to better understand this interaction. We talked to two scientists working in this field of cancer research.
In the human body,…

A young scientist seeks a method to knock out fibrosis
Lab work is exciting, says Bastian Fischer. Even experiments that just yield their expected results inspire the young German scientist. Fischer is currently working on his PhD, and is investigating how fibrosis develops, so that effective therapies for this medical condition can be found.
A scar is often all that remains of a deep cut – if anything remains at all….
