Course Description
Cell therapy refers to the transfer of autologous or allogeneic cellular material into a patient for medical purposes. It is developed to provide a concise overview of the essential elements to help one navigate the field. Cell therapy includes stem cell- and non–stem cell-based, unicellular and multicellular therapies, with different immune-phenotypic profiles, isolation techniques, mechanisms of action, and regulatory levels.
Following the steps of their predecessor cell therapies that have become established or commercialized, investigational and premarket approval-exempt cell therapies continue to provide patients with promising therapeutic benefits in different disease areas. So in this course, the foundations of cellular therapy will be discussed with a Short course on Cell analytics
