title: Resolving the controversy about N-cadherin and hematopoietic stem cells.
abstract: Discrepancies in published results about the role of N-cadherin in hematopoietic stem cells have led to confusion in the field. Attempting to settle the disagreements and reach a consensus, we undertook a collective discussion approach. This process clarified a number of issues but left some questions still unresolved.
