INTRODUCTION

Stem cells are undifferentiated cells responsible for the formation of entire fetus,

maintenance and functional integrity of tissues under steady-state conditions

and their repair following injury (in adults). They are inexhaustive (show self-

renewal property), can multiply extensively, have different proliferation and

differentiation controls than normal body cells. Stem cells demonstrate extensive

regenerative abilities and have enormous potential to cure hitherto incurable

diseases like neurodegenerative disorders, spinal cord injury, diabetes etc. Of

late, cord blood stem cell banking becoming a common practice all over the

world. Combine with the power of tissue engineering, stem cells could be used to

create artificial bio-organs and tissue constructs for various applications such as

bone fractures, skin reconstruction, corneal regeneration etc.

As with the potentials, stem cells also bring with it equally challenging problems,

such as teratogenesis and cancer (with ES cell applications), ineffective host

integration (with allogenic stem cell sources). Further, it is equally important to

understand the unique conditions a stem cell demands for proper growth,

differentiation and integration (both in vivo and in vitro) and for clinical and

non-clinical applications. Indeed, an offshoot of stem cell research found that

cancers harbour stem cells of their own kind. These issues create a demand for

highly skilled manpower who can appreciate the intricacies of the stem cell

molecular basics and control.

In realising the potential of stem cells and the demand it has created for skilled

manpower in health and allied sectors, AutoStem Laboratories instituted

International Advanced Diploma Programme in Stem Cells and Regenerative

Medicine. ADSCRM program is designed to impart advanced theoretical and

technical knowledge on stem cell biology with a major emphasis on clinical and

scientific applications. The theory module is supported by well designed clinical

experiments and a project that will train the doctors and paramedical

professionals for a successful application stem cell regenerative medicine into

modern practices and disease management.

The participants will be registered and awarded Diploma under AutoStem

Laboratories (ASL) and will be a Distinguished Fellow of AutoStem laboratories*

upon successful nomination.

*A Monograph on extended advantages of being a FASL will be given along with

the Admission Certificate to the Registering participants.
