Author Information

Awtar Krishan, Ph.D is a Professor of Pathology at the University of Miami School of Medicine. From 1965 to 1977, he was at the Sidney Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard MedicalSchool as Head of the Tissue Ultrastructure and Experimental Pathology Labs. Some of his recent work has focused on development and applications of a new flow cytometer which can measure cell volume and marker expression of stem cells in human apheresis samples. Dr. Krishan has more than 160 publications in peer reviewed journals. H. Krishnamurthy is working as Scientific Officer 'E' and in charge of Flow Cytometry and Confocal Microscopy Facilities at the National Centre for Biological Sciences, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Bangalore, India. His research interest is hormonal regulation of spermatogenesis and trafficking and signaling of gonadotropin receptors. Satish Totey is Chief Scientific Officer, Stempeutics Research Pvt. Ltd and Director at the Manipal Institute of Regenerative Medicine inBangalore. Dr. Totey was amongst the small number of researchers who pioneered the isolation and characterization of pluripotent stem cells from human embryos. The cell lines he established have been listed in the NIH stem cell registry. He has also developed up-scaling of mesenchymal stem cells and is currently conducting phase-I and II clinical trials for myocardial infarction, leg ischemia, cerebral stroke and Multiple Sclerosis. He has published 90 research papers and holds 12US patents.
