title: The standpoint of stem cell research.
abstract: The 6th Annual Meeting of the International Society for Stem Cell Research focused on several issues, such as cancer stem cells, tissue regeneration, stem cell transplantation, biology of embryonic and adult stem cells of various species, regulation of stem cells epigenetic state and reprogramming of somatic cells for the production of induced pluripotent stem cells. This report summarizes the standpoint of stem cell research, based on the proceedings of the meeting.
