In Dr. Lanza's address, scheduled for Thursday, June 14, at 8:30 am, he will speak on the use of embryonic stem cells Embryonic stem cells (ES cells) are stem cells derived from the inner cell mass of an early stage embryo known as a blastocyst. Human embryos reach the blastocyst stage 4-5 days post fertilization, at which time they consist of 50-150 cells. ES cells are pluripotent. and the role they play in regenerative medicine.
