AI and CRISPR Key to Stem Cell Use in Regenerative Medicine

Functional organs from stem cells possible through machine learning and gene-editing

20-Nov-2019

Key points from article :

Machine and CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing used to control stem cells patterns.

Such as human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) from own person's adult cells.

AI helps predict new ways stem cells organize and instructs how to recreate in lab.

Model simulated specific experimental conditions in adding drugs to the iPSCs.

Successful generation of concentric circles to two layers of stem cell populations.

Capacity to leverage the intrinsic ability of stem cells to organize.

Paths clear to engineering multicellular organization for engineering organs.

Research by Gladstone Institute and Boston University.
