## Abstract Stem cell transplantation represents a critical approach for the treatment of many malignant and nonβmalignant diseases. The foundation for these approaches is the ability to cryopreserve marrow cells for future use. This technique is routinely employed in all autologous settings and is
## Abstract Induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology has emerged as the most promising method for generating patientβspecific human embryonic stem (ES) cells and adult stem cells (Takahashi et al., 2007, Cell 131:861β872; Wernig et al., 2007, Nature 448:318β324; Park et al., 2008, Nature 451
Lentiviral vectors are more efficient at transducing quiescent hematopoietic stem cells than murine retroviral vectors. This characteristic is due to multiple karyophilic components of the lentiviral vector pre-integration complex. Lentiviral vectors are also able to carry more complex payloads than
