Ray’s paper receives ThéCell Network 2020 Publication Prize

Ray’s recent paper on controlled self-clustering of induced pluripotent stem cells being differentiated towards a pancreatic lineage was recognized with the Publication Prize for the 2020 Summer Competition from ThéCell, a provincial research network focused on cell-based therapies. This exciting research program, in collaboration with the Hoesli lab, suggests new ways to improve pancreatic differentiation strategies to ultimately bioengineer stem-cell based solutions for diabetes.
