Stem cells have two remarkable abilities: they can self-renew to keep the stem cell pool replenished, and8 W& A( ]; {. s3 B2 V& W
they can differentiate into a wide variety of cell types. This stunning biological duality intrigues not only

and James E. Till, launched the field of stem cell research with their groundbreaking work on the hematopoietic
