Abstract
Stem cells, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), have shown great potential for various biomedical applications including drug discovery, disease modeling, and tissue engineering. Especially, the discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) with similar characteristics to embryonic stem cells (ESCs) opens a new era for stem cell research and transplantations. Bioprocess engineering provides a platform to generate a controlled microenvironment that could potentially recreate a stem cell niche in view of promoting stem cell proliferation or the lineage-specific differentiation.
