Stem Cells and Development is globally recognized as the trusted source for critical, even controversial coverage of emerging hypotheses and novel findings. With a focus on stem cells of all tissue types and their potential therapeutic applications, the Journal provides clinical, basic, and translational scientists with cutting-edge research and findings.Stem Cells and Development coverage includes:Embryogenesis and adult counterparts of this processPhysical processes linking stem cells, primary cell function, and structural developmentHypotheses exploring the relationship between genotype and phenotypeDevelopment of vasculature, CNS, and other germ layer development and defectsPluripotentiality of embryonic and somatic stem cellsThe role of genetic and epigenetic factors in development
