The multi-dimensionality of stem cells has made them the biggest a potential candidate for regenerativemedicine. The basic advantage of stem cells is their ability to transform
into different cell lineages for promoting tissue regeneration and the
technology has been widely researched for bone regeneration, cancer treatment,
anti-aging treatment, body organ transplantation.
With such a great amount of
research, it is inevitable that there ought to be a lot of discussions
all over the social media, starting from experts to passionate research
scholars who try to keep the world updated with all recent stem cell research and
trials. The greatest social media channel in recent times is Twitter and a lot
of important professional personalities do come up often on this platform to
keep up with the industry trends. Now what does stem cell research has to do
with Twitter? Right?
Reaching out to a huge number of
common people regarding stem cell
research benefits and pitfalls is very much possible on this platform which
takes away the ‘right to academia’ from the elite class and presents it to the
social mass. This further helps the scientists to interact and discuss with
other academicians regarding their interests, discoveries, research challenges
etc. and brings out the whole picture in front of interested people widespread
on the social media platform. There arethousands and thousands of stem cell research
followers and tweets by reputed stem cell labs and research organizations, and
we bring you a list of the top 10!
1. @CCRM_ca – If you are
looking for an informative Twitter feed from Canada with videos, business blogs,
regenerative medicine news regarding Stem Cell Research and Regenerative
Medicine, this is it!
2. @harvardstemcell – Harvard Stem
Cell Institute (HSCI) is one of the largest stem cell research institutes of
the worldand is making an intensive effort to steadily highlight the successes through
this Twitter feed.
3. @CIRMnews – This twitter account
of California based stem cell research funding agency talks about stem cell
treatment experimentsand moral responsibility. Their feed is based on updates,
alerts and archived stem cell research works.
4. @nyscf – New York’s
Stem Cell Foundation twitter handle features videos, webinars invites and
updates from the NYSCF’s daily happenings. The Twitter feed is instrumental in portraying
the insights from professional NYSCF research scholars.
5. @RegMedNet – This twitter
handle is sort of an acronym for Regenerative Medicine Network and posts
regular updates of conferences, webinars, publications, and commentaries from
researchers in the field of stem cells, across US and Europe.
6. @WSCSummit – World Stem
Cell Summit is a non-profit organization
involved with stem cell research and funding, and this twitter handle
remains a great choice for academicians and stem cell researchers to stay
updated with global stem cell related news.
7. @StemCellTracker – The stem cell
tracker twitter gives aquite interesting repertoire of stem cell information with
news updates on stem cell research from industrial and academic domains.
8. @CellStemCell – The only twitter
account of the highest rated stem cell journal is one of the best choice for
checking stem cell research trends and knowing the different groundbreaking
research articles.
9. @StemCellPodcast – This is an
amazing venture by a public news service that informs people regarding the
pursuit of stem cell scientists through their blogs, interviews and research
works.
10. @pknoepfler – Talking about
blogs, stem cell researchers are obviously well aware of The
Niche
by Paul Knoepfler and this is his twitter handle. Professor Knoepfler’s twitter
is more about his life interests and propagating research worldwide.
As research technologies are
developing, so is the mode of scientific communication through social media.
Being a good communicator helps one better in developing their research
expertise and spreading more research enthusiasm to the upcoming scientists.
