Vanderbilt Center for Stem Cell Biology

The Vanderbilt Center for Stem Cell Biology aims to understand the biology of stem cells and the mechanisms for directing their differentiation to specific cell fates. It is home to the Beta Cell Biology Consortium, a group of scientists dedicated to learning how to make pancreatic beta, which are destroyed in Type 1 diabetes, from embryonic stem cells.
