Mission Statement
As part of the Department of Developmental Biology, the Stem Cell Core is
committed to support human ES and iPS cell research at the University of
Pittsburgh and beyond. By facilitating the derivation and distribution of
human iPS cell lines, the Stem Cell Core will accelerate research in the
stem cell field. The Stem Cell Core will also maintain human ES cell line
repository. The Core will serve as a hub for information and provide technical,
consultative and training services. The Core will test the reagents that
are used to generate and culture pluripotent stem cells and redistribute
the products to users. The Core will develop new technologies to derive
stem cells and establish new cell differentiation protocols for future
clinical applications.
Core Services
All services and procedures are performed in accordance with good quality
assurance and record keeping practices pursuant to standard operating
procedures and good laboratory practices.
