Learn how Leonardo Morsut, PhD, with USC Stem Cell and USC Viterbi School of Engineering is leading the way in the field of regenerative medicine to ignite discovery in stem cell research.
Dr. Rong Lu’s lab studies stem cell coordination, regulation and malfunction from a single cell perspective. If you’re interested in studying stem cells or cancer at the single cell level, please email …
To discover new therapies to treat disease, scientists use living cells to study drug action and identify new drug candidates. The Choi Family Therapeutic Screening Facility in USC’s stem cell research center …
Microscopy is as important today as it was when the first microscope was invented more than 400 years ago. In the Optical Imaging Facility in USC’s stem cell research center, scientists use …
To study a specific cell type, such as a rare stem cell, to understand its role in development or disease, scientists must separate this cell from many other cells present in a tissue or …
The University of Southern California has designed a unique “incubator” for scientists, engineers and clinicians to collaborate across disciplines and leverage the transformative power of stem cells to develop the future of …
The Flow Cytometry Facility is the central resource for cell sorting and analysis at USC. The facility serves around 100 research laboratories across both campuses of USC, as well as external clients. …

In this 360 video, join Dr. Andy McMahon and our world-class scientists as they take you on a tour of the Eli and Edythe Broad CIRM Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem …
The Translational Imaging Center is not Universal Studios, but it employs custom lights (lasers), cameras and wardrobe (contrast dyes) all to get its mercurial stars (the zebrafish) to perform on cue. The …
USC Stem Cell scientist and former professional volleyball player Leonardo Morsut has built a synthetic cellular communication system known as “synNotch.” This system could enable scientists to direct the behavior of cells …
USC Stem Cell scientist Rong Lu studies two general questions: how do individual stem cells differ from each other? And second, how do different stem cells work together to maintain proper tissue …
Just as there are times when two heads are better than one, there are times when two labs are better than one. Thanks to the new Doerr Stem Cell Challenge Grants, teams …
Two new studies from Valter Longo indicate that a brief fasting- mimicking diet done periodically reduces disease risk factors and may reverse diseases like diabetes by promoting regeneration.
