SCRMC investigators will advance the science of blood stem cell biology through five novel projects
Five innovative projects studying blood stem cells are currently underway at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Led by Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Center (SCRMC) investigators and supported by a gift from the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF), these projects will investigate a wide variety of blood-based processes, from the role of inflammation in blood cell genome function and blood cell-derived pathologies e.g., cancer, to what impacts blood cell aging.
