Provides basic insight into latest stem cell technologies. I found the course pretty useful, although they should've expanded more on a few topics like CRISPER-cas gene editing and other concepts..

I haven't finished yet, but I'm really enjoying the course. Mr Mazzoni is an excellent lecturer, explaining things such that even I understand. Plenty of pictures are worth thousands of words.
