- Summary:
- Harvey (biopolitics of science, U. of Sydney) tracks the development of commercial prospects for the stem cell sciences, and looks at how stem cell technologies have entered or are entering into the marketplace, in order to identify what specific barriers might be facing the global business. She covers stem cell science, biotechnology, and the problem of commercialization; stem cell treatments in a global marketplace; the role of innovation systems in the commercialization of biotechnology; low-risk, high-value adult stem cells; high-risk, high-value embryonic stem cells; and low-risk, low-value induced pluripotent stem cells; and what the future holds.
