Geron and University of Edinburgh collaborate on development of cell types derived from human embryonic stell cells
"The milestones and endpoints of these programs were collaboratively defined, with Geron contributing its expertise on the design and execution of IND-enabling (Investigational New Drug) studies," said Dr. Jane Lebkowski, Geron's senior vice president of regenerative medicine. "We are enthusiastic about conducting these studies at the University of Edinburgh because of the infrastructure in place at the New Royal Infirmary in Little France. Moreover, the lead investigators include experienced hESC researchers and practicing physicians whose expertise will be useful to progress these cell types to the clinic."
