Culture Your Expertise in Hematopoiesis with Us
Being a scientist involves cultivating your expertise through new findings in your experiments, in combination with the discoveries of those who have come before you - the experts. As stem cell scientists ourselves, we owe everything to those who have helped us get to where we are today. After more than 20 years in the field of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) research, we are proud to share our expertise with you through educational materials, technical support staff and our products.
Follow us on , or for updates on new resources including researcher interviews, tech tips and special offers including information about travel awards, webinars and contests!
