The University of Massachusetts Medical School and the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center (MLSC) have launched the International Stem Cell Registry (ISCR) on the Internet.
The goal of the ISCR is to provide a “searchable, comprehensive database that includes published and validated unpublished information on all human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) lines as well as other pluripotent stem cell lines.”
The website has been designed to be used by academics, private companies, and the public. The idea of the registry is to provide a “one stop shop” for stem cell information and for the latest developments in stem cell research.
