Prof Janet Rossant, Senior Scientist on the Developmental &amp; Stem Cell Biology Program, Chief of Research Emeritus at the SickKids Research Institute, President and Scientific Director of the Gairdner Foundation and Professor in the Departments of Molecular Genetics and Obstetrics &amp; Gynaecology at the University of Toronto, is interviewed by PhD student Geraldine Jowett. Janet discusses her work characterising embryonic development and applying this to generate stem cell models. She talks about the importance of the terminology and language used surrounding embryo research, as well as how her lab is contributing to the COVID response.

Episode 114 - Prof Janet Rossant - "Science is going to get us out of this, science is the answer."

Guest:Dr. Janet Rossant is a Senior Scientist in the Developmental &amp; Stem Cell Biology Program at The Hospital for Sick Children and is a Professor in both the Department of Molecular Genetics and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the University of Toronto. Her research interests center on understanding the genetic control of normal and abnormal development in the early mouse embryo using both cellular and genetic manipulation techniques. Her interests in the early embryo have led to the discovery of a novel placental stem cell type, the trophoblast stem cell. Rossant is also the Director of the newly formed Ontario Institute for Regenerative Medicine.Featured Resource: STEMdiff™ Definitive Endoderm Kit: Defined Animal Component-Free Medium for the Differentiation of Human ES and iPS Cells to Definitive EndodermResources and LinksCancer Vaccine Eliminates Tumors in Mice- Injecting minute amounts of two immune-stimulating agents directly into solid tumors in mice can eliminate all traces of cancer in the animals, including distant, untreated metastases, according to a study by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine.Tiny Stomach Found in Lung Tumors- Findings demonstrate that elements of pathologic tumor plasticity mirror the normal developmental history of organs in that cancer cells acquire cell fates associated with developmentally related neighboring organs.Is the Interstitium a New Organ?- A study confirms that the spaces between cells are fluid-filled, rather than tightly packed with connective tissue, but pathologists say the implications of the findings remain to be seen.Brain Organoids and Blood Vessels- Unpredictable variations and deficiencies have hampered the usefulness of organoids in research, but new techniques for creating mini-brains may change that.RPE Cell Transplantation to Treat Macular Degeneration - Scientists demonstrated the feasibility and safety of human embryonic stem cell-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) patch transplantation as a regenerative strategy for age-related macular degeneration.Human Hippocampal Neurogenesis Persists throughout Aging - Researchers found that healthy older subjects without cognitive impairment, neuropsychiatric disease or treatment display preserved neurogenesis.Photo Reference: Courtesy of Dr. Janet Rossant#footable_5807  {    font-family: inherit;    font-size: 14px;    }#footable_parent_5807 thead{    display: none;}#footable_parent_5807 a.nt_edit_link{    display: none;}#footable_parent_5807 td{    border-color: #fff;}#footable_parent_5807 img{    margin-top: 0px;}.semantic_ui .ui.table{  border: 0px solid !important;  }.semantic_ui .ui.table td {    padding: 0em;}                                                                        #footable_5808  {    font-family: inherit;    font-size: 14px;    }thead{    display: none;}#footable_parent_5808 a.nt_edit_link{    display: none;}#footable_parent_5808 td{    border-color: #fff;}#footable_parent_5808 img{    margin-top: 0px;}.semantic_ui .ui.table{  border: 0px solid !important;  }.semantic_ui .ui.table td {    padding: 0em;}                                                                        #footable_5807  {    font-family: inherit;    font-size: 14px;    }#footable_parent_5807 thead{    display: none;}#footable_parent_5807 a.nt_edit_link{    display: none;}#footable_parent_5807 td{    border-color: #fff;}#footable_parent_5807 img{    margin-top: 0px;}.semantic_ui .ui.table{  border: 0px solid !important;  }.semantic_ui .ui.table td {    padding: 0em;}                                                                        #footable_5808  {

Featured Resource: STEMdiff™ Definitive Endoderm Kit: Defined Animal Component-Free Medium for the Differentiation of Human ES and iPS Cells to Definitive Endoderm Resources and Links Cancer Vaccine Eliminates Tumors in Mice- Injecting minute amounts of two immune-stimulating agents directly into solid tumors in mice can eliminate all traces of cancer in the animals, including distant, untreated metastases, according to a study by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine. Tiny Stomach Found in Lung Tumors- Findings demonstrate that elements of pathologic tumor plasticity mirror the normal developmental history of organs in that cancer cells acquire cell fates associated with developmentally related neighboring organs.
