Millman Lab receives funding to improve engraftment of stem cells through genetic engineering 

In January, Jeffrey Millman, PhD was awarded funding of $450,000 from JDRF for his lab’s project titled “Genetic Engineering to Improve Engraftment of Stem Cell-Derived Islets.”    Transplantation of new insulin-producing cells into the patients could be a functional cure for type 1 diabetes. We have developed a method for creating these cells in the lab […]
