Cell therapy is an emerging field that uses living cells and cellular products to treat and prevent disease. At Brown, faculty in the biological and physical sciences are conducting exciting research in mesenchymal stem cells, iPS cells, 3D cell culture, biofabrication, stem cell engineering, exosomes and gene therapy with applications to cancer, cardiovascular disease, orthopedics, neurodegenerative diseases, and regenerative medicine. Students take graduate level courses to deepen their understanding of cell biology, stem cells, tissue engineering, therapeutic proteins, neuroscience, pathology and cancer biology.
