Since induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were first produced in 2006 from mouse cells and in 2007 from human cells, scientists have recognized the incredible potential of the cell type, including their utility in drug and toxicology screening, disease modeling, and cellular therapy applications ranging from gene correction, to whole tissue regeneration, individualized medicine, and more. Given the financial potential of the cell type, it is important to have strategies for accessing key individuals, events, and iPSC facilities.
