Current Topics in iPSCs provides a deep analysis of the underlying fundamentals that support short and mid-term developments and milestones in the business of mesenchymal stem cell therapies. This volume explores the next frontier of MSC therapies and how the transformational potential of therapeutic adult cells will be realised in all therapy areas. The impacts of clinical and economic benefits are dissected throughout each of the chapters. Written by thought leaders in the field for those curious about the interface of science and business.
- Explores the strategy at the forefront of the science of mesenchymal stem cells
- Provides an overview of all therapy areas where MSC and MSC-derived products can be used therapeutically
- Depicts transformational changes in healthcare that enable the implementation of MSC-powered technology platforms

Alexander Birbrair
Dr. Alexander Birbrair received his bachelor’s biomedical degree from Santa Cruz State University in Brazil. He completed his PhD in Neuroscience, in the field of stem cell biology, at the Wake Forest School of Medicine under the mentorship of Osvaldo Delbono. Then, he joined as a postdoc in stem cell biology at Paul Frenette’s laboratory at Albert Einstein School of Medicine in New York. In 2016, he was appointed faculty at Federal University of Minas Gerais in Brazil, where he started his own lab. His laboratory is interested in understanding how the cellular components of different tissues function and control disease progression. His group explores the roles of specific cell populations in the tissue microenvironment by using state-of-the-art techniques. His research is funded by the Serrapilheira Institute, CNPq, CAPES, and FAPEMIG. In 2018, Alexander was elected affiliate member of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences (ABC), and, in 2019, he was elected member of the Global Young Academy (GYA), and in 2021, he was elected affiliate member of The World Academy of Sciences (TWAS). He is the Founding Editor and Editor-in-Chief of Current Tissue Microenvironment Reports, and Associate Editor of Molecular Biotechnology. Alexander also serves in the editorial board of several other international journals: Stem Cell Reviews and Reports, Stem Cell Research, Stem Cells and Development, and Histology and Histopathology.
