Covid-19 has posed countless challenges for the #healthcare sector. Prof. Ma and collaborators have worked out how to transport and optimise #blood #StemCells for life-saving #transplants for patients during the pandemic, read here https://t.co/gmFJmfKfic @cytotherapy @SVHSydney

Thank you @melinda_tursky for presenting your fantastic research on #ipsc and representing us at the @SVCRSymposium

#CallToAction support direct comparisons of #iPSC #Blood methods + multiple endpoints =empower method selection! Ours: Best =2D-multistep more live, CD34+ & CFU progenitors, lowest cost & time, most sensitive genetic disorders https://t.co/zxE7nPZGII @SVCRSymposium #SVCRS2021 5/5

[Melinda L Tursky @melinda_tursky]

@SVH_BSCCR tested 4 methods’ sensitivity =recapitulate genetic #Blood disorders. Our 2D-multistep =most sensitive =detect increase all functional blood progenitors of #iPSC #DownSyndrome (DS-Tri21) & fewer #RedBloodCells beta #Thalassemia (t-tests) @SVCRSymposium #SVCRS2021 4/5

[Melinda L Tursky @melinda_tursky]

@SVH_BSSCR directly compared our 2DM #iPSC #Blood protocol to 3 distinct recently cited methods. Ours =most live cells, CD34+ & functional CFU blood progenitors. Cheapest & fastest to produce 1 million CD34+ & CFU functional progenitor cells, ANOVA @SVCRSymposium #SVCRS2021 3/5

[Melinda L Tursky @melinda_tursky]

Our optimised #iPSC #blood production method =2D-multistep =Efficiency 7x more progenitor cells + robust colonies =50% cost, 40% less time! (Improved =blue, different iPSC lines: diamonds, crosses) (t-tests) #hematology @SVH_BSCCR @stemcellreports @SVCRSymposium #SVCRS2021 2/5

[Melinda L Tursky @melinda_tursky]

Starting #iPSC #StemCell work in your lab & unsure which #Blood production method to use? Check here =direct comparison of 4 distinct serum/feeder-free methods +our method =one of the highest proportion of functional progenitors in literature WOW! @SVCRSymposium #SVCRS2021 1/5
