Prof. Higuchi is a distinguished Professor in National Central University, a guest researcher in RIKEN (Japan) and National Research Center for Child Health and Development (Tokyo), and a visiting professor in King Saud University (Saudi Arabia) and Wenzhou Medical University (China). He received his Ph.D. in Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1985. He was a Professor in Seikei University (Tokyo) from 1993 to 2007. He received Sofue Memorial Award from Society of Fiber Science, Japan in 1994, Seikei Academic Award from Seikei Alumni Association in 2003, and Nanotechnology Outstanding Contribution Award, National Science Council, Taiwan in 2013, Future Tech Breakthrough Award in 2019, Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan. He also received Outstanding Scientific Award, Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine International Society, Asia Pacific region (TERMIS-AP) in 2021. He is a fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC, England), a fellow of Taiwan Chemical Engineering Society, and a fellow of American Institute for Medical & Biological Engineering (AIMBE, USA). He is interested in the development of materials for stem cell culture and differentiation. He established purification method of hematopoietic stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cord blood and adipose tissue, respectively by filtration method through polymeric porous membranes. He is also developing biomaterials for stem cell culture and differentiation. He emphasized the important function of cell culture biomaterials, which guide differentiation fate of human pluripotent stem cells and mesenchymal stem cells into specific lineage of the cells. He developed ECM-derived peptide-immobilized hydrogels having adjustable elasticity for culture and differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells. He is now developing universal (hypoimmunogenic) human pluripotent stem cells on specific ECM-coated surface. He is an advisory board of Journal of Materials Chemistry B (RSC), an Editor of Open Physics, Editorial Board of Laboratory Investigation, Editorial Board of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, and Associate Editor of IET Nanobiotechnology.

Dr. Mok received her PhD award from National University of Malaysia, Malaysia in 2012. She joined the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Malaysia in 2013 and is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Biomedical Science. She also has previously served as an Assistant Professor in Jouf University, Saudi Arabia from 2017 to 2021. She is also the founding Vice President of Malaysian Stem Cell for Research and Therapy (MSCRT) association. Dr. Mok has passion for researches involving stem cell engineering at the genetic, cell and tissue level involving human samples with aim to improve the quality of life in the patients. Most of her research works integrated many methods that include genetic modifications, use of biomaterials and tissue engineering for optimal result outcomes. Her current research focus is to find alternative treatment for visual impairment using stem cells. Other than that, she is also conducting research on cancer targeting by using CRISPR-Cas technology and introduction of chimeric antigen receptor into immune effector cells.

Dalla quarta di copertina

Stem Cell Laboratory Techniques: A Guide for Researchers and Students introduces the reader to stem cell culture, handling techniques and versatile applications, used by researchers around the world. The guide begins with the introduction of stem cells, including definitions, types, and basic use of stem cells in biomedical science research.

As a guide book about stem cell lab techniques, this book explains the laboratory procedures and techniques ranging from extraction of stem cells from animal, cell seeding and culture, harvest and maintenance of stem cells, stem cell characterization, accurate recording and quality control, to differentiation techniques for confirmation studies. For the analysis of stem cell study, the book guides researchers in the topics of transcriptome analysis, proliferation study analysis, and microphysiological study.

Stem Cell Laboratory Techniques also includes the useful and recent applications in stem cells, such as gene editing techniques for stem cell, and preparation of stem cells for in vitro study, as well as the stem cell lab design and equipment used in the lab. Lastly, human and animal research ethics will be discussed. Because the book covers the basics, which is required in every stem cell laboratory, through the updated application of stem cells it is a must read for anyone researching or studying stem cells.
