Ognuno dei nostri corpi è davvero qualcosa di unico e questo è un pensiero meraviglioso fino a che non si tratta di curare una malattia -- quando cioè ognuno di noi reagisce in modo diverso, spesso imprevedibile, ai trattamenti standard. L’ingegnere dei tessuti Nina Tandon parla di una possibile soluzione: l’utilizzo di cellule staminali pluripotenti per creare modelli personalizzati di organi su cui testare nuovi farmaci e trattamenti e archiviarli in chip di computer. Chiamatela pure medicina estremamente personalizzata.

Nina Tandon studies ways to use electrical signals to grow artificial tissues for transplants and other therapies. Full bio »
