Edited by Lothar Kanz and Katja C. Weisel (University of Tübingen, Tübingen, Germany), John E. Dick (University of Toronto, Toronto, Ontario, Canada), and Willem E. Fibbe (Leiden University Medical Center, Leiden, The Netherlands)
A fundamental property of hematopoetic stem cells is the capacity to self-renew; this volume presents recent developments and clinical implications in hematopoietic stem cell research.
eBriefing
Speakers: Senthil Muthuswamy (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Enrique Rodriguez-Boulan (Weill Cornell Medical College), John Condeelis (Albert Einstein College of Medicine), and Ian Macara (University of Virginia School of Medicine)
A change in cell polarity is one of the hallmarks of carcinogenesis, and understanding—and stopping—that transition is now one of the hottest topics in cancer research. A new eBriefing looks at recent developments in the field.
