To celebrate #StemCellAwarenessDay, we've put together a quick explainer on stem cells: what they are and why they matter! 🧪
#UCLAStemCell #ResearchPowersProgress #StemCellResearch

A graphic that features the title "Stem Cells: A Quick Explainer" against a black-and-white microscopy photo of cells.A graphic that explains that stem cells act as the building blocks of living organisms and are defined by two key characteristics: they can divide indefinitely, and they can develop into more specialized cells. An image of a lab petri dish set is featured in the background.A graphic that explains that stem cells play an important role in the maintenance of organs and tissues. The background is an image of a researcher using a microscope.A graphic explaining that stem cells are used to study human development, model diseases, test new drugs and develop cell replacement therapies. An image of a laboratory worker at a lab hood is featured in the background.
