This infographic provides an overview of the processes behind the large-scale purification of biologically-derived products.

The availability of technologies for the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from somatic cells has allowed researchers to generate limitless pools of iPSCs retaining the genetic makeup of the somatic cells from which they were derived. Together, iPSCs and CRISPR-Cas9 systems provide researchers with effective in vitro tools for assessing gene function, disease modeling, and regenerative therapy.

The extent to which resident microbes can affect our health is slowly being realized, and our current understanding may be just the tip of the iceberg. Download this infographic to learn how knowledge of the microbiome can be used to aid medical decision-making, as well as current trends, goals, techniques and challenges of the field.
