Stem Cell Institute

The Stem Cell Institute (SCI), part of the University of Science at Vietnam National University Ho Chi Minh City, advances research, technology development, production, training, and scientific services in stem cell science. Its research spans stem cell biology, cancer biology, regenerative medicine, diagnostics and therapeutics, aging science, and biochips, from molecular and cellular studies to tissue and organism-level work. SCI also develops products and provides pilot-scale manufacturing to help refine technologies.

The institute’s offerings include stem cell-related technologies and products, such as cell culture media, cryopreservation solutions, kits, and products associated with platelet-rich plasma and regenerative applications. Its listed cell sources include adipose tissue, bone marrow, umbilical cord tissue and blood, dental pulp, and skin, as well as induced pluripotent stem cells. Services include scientific and technical support, assessment and quality control, and evaluation of biological activity in vitro and in vivo. SCI contributes to university and postgraduate education, technician training, and practical laboratory programs.
