This book gives an overview of the revolutionary advances in stem
cell science that may potentially impact human reproductive medicine.
The contents cover the production and regeneration of female and male
germ cells, trophoblasts, and endometrium from human embryonic and
adult stem cells. New developments in hESC derivation that will
impact clinical use are covered and cutting-edge technologies such as
reprogramming, nuclear transfer, and imprinting are addressed in
relation to reproductive medicine. There is a tremendous thirst for
knowledge about this topic and this will be one of the first books to
address the key issues specifically for the reproductive medicine
market.
