Amsterdam, NL – The first StemJournal newsletter of 2022 features an extract from the new review article on the topic of transdifferentiation now published in Volume 4, a reminder to submit your conference abstract to StemMeets, news relating to members of our board, and a call for submissions!

As StemJournal (STJ) is still a new journal, we are actively seeking submissions to be considered for publication. Work is going on in the background, with the help of the Editorial Board, to get the word out there to researchers and encourage them to submit papers and protocols for consideration. We are also continually developing aspects of the journal and components of its parent StemHub, and we will inform you of the latest news via our newsletter.

Co-Editor-in-Chief Chad A. Cowan wishes to encourage researchers to submit to the journal: "I am confident that StemJournal will attract and publish the latest breaking advances in our field. Importantly, with its broad focus the journal also seeks to provide a forum for studies that use stem cells to develop novel therapies and perhaps even cures for people suffering from devastating diseases.” He comments, “Together with the growing StemHub, our vision is to build a community for all stem cell researchers to share ideas and advance the field to developing the cures of tomorrow."

Latest Newsletter

In our latest newsletter – view it here – we call for submissions to our journal. We are inviting submissions across the full gamut of content types, whether you wish to submit a new Review, Research Article, Protocol, or Position Paper. Author guidelines provide full details on how to submit your research. Why not consider StemJournal as the vehicle by which you can communicate your latest paper with the world?

You can also choose the journal to publish a Poster Report. Conference posters can be published for prosterity in StemJournal. Concurrently, the article will also be co-published online in StemMeets. Discover how to prepare your manuscript for submission here, along with some more details below!

As inspiration to submit your paper, we are thrilled to announce the publication of first journal article in 2022 – by Huanhuan Joyce Chen and colleagues from the University of Chicago – and needless to say this is open access and available to all to read, download, and share. Discover more below!

Transdifferentiation Meets Next-generation Biotechnologies

Xiaoshan Ke, Abhimanyu Thakur, and Huanhuan Joyce Chen

_{Citaton (Review Article): StemJournal, Vol.4, Iss.1, pp. 1–11, 2022 (DOI: 10.3233/STJ-200003)}

"Transdifferentiation into neuronal cells, skeletal myocytes, cardiac myocytes, and hematopoietic cells have been explored massively. Mature protocols existed for in vitro conversion from mouse and human cell sources; however, more investigation is needed for in vivo cases. Researchers have put extensive efforts into improving conversion efficiency by either overexpressing different transcription factors, transducing miRNAs into the system, or incorporating small molecules. Facilitating the next-generation biotechnologies and illustrating the signaling pathway behind each cell fate decision helps us recognize the critical factors and manipulate the transdifferentiation results."

STEMMEETS: SUBMIT YOUR POSTER REPORT

Did you discover StemMeets yet? It is an open access forum for stem cell researchers that aim is to provide researchers with the options to communicate abstracts and proceedings, plus posters, meeting, conference, and workshop reports across the full spectrum of stem cell research.

Poster Reports

Have you spent time creating a poster to communicate your research to your peers at a meeting? Perhaps you presented this at a conference or virtual meeting? Now, you can publish this poster for prosterity as a Poster Report in StemJournal. Concurrently, the article will also be co-published here online in StemMeets.
