Stem cell treatments, research, and technology are no longer relegated to sci-fi novels or movies. Stem cell therapy is a type of medical treatment involving stem cells, which are undifferentiated cells that can develop into many different types of cells in the body. In stem cell therapy, stem cells are introduced into a person’s body to repair or replace damaged or diseased cells, tissues, or organs. Today, stem cell research offers potential treatments for the future that may cure many disease processes, enable people with spinal cord injuries to walk again, and perhaps even see an end to cognitive impairment diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Disease.

Stem cell technologies and advancements are being made on an almost daily basis. From Japan to India to the U.S. to Europe, Africa, and Russia, the world’s scientists and medical experts have been studying and using stem cell treatments and therapy to treat a wide range of illnesses, injuries, and disease processes, including but not limited.
