[ Read More ]Medicine and treatments for illness and disease have evolved over time dramatically and in a wonderful way, the ways in which the treatments and medical procedures are improving are mainly down to the ways in which they are tested, researched, and analyzed. Collecting data in fair scientific trials is being used to the public’s advantage
[ Read More ]The process to design, develop, and launch a new drug is a lengthy one – and much of the final success rides on the clinical trial stage. To organize a successful clinical trial that meets all scientific and regulatory requirements, biomedical companies need to recruit a multidisciplinary team. This must involve competent investigators, a tightly-knitted
[ Read More ]Stem cell therapy and translational stem cell research are the two most revolutionary and advanced concepts in the world of science today. These scientific revolutions require an extensive supply of stem cells at the highest purity and viability. So, different specific stem cell separation technologies play a significant role here. The technologies like the PXP
