Development and optimization of cell based cryopreservation models

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Cryopreservation is a foundational technology based in interdisciplinary fundamental science. It facilitates basic research through genetic resource repositories and cell-line distribution, enables animal and plant endangered species conservation, is crucial to billion dollar industries in animal and plant agriculture, and plays a critical role in veterinary and human transplantation and transfusion medicine. However, in spite of these myriad applications and nearly a century of research, few cells, fewer tissues, and no organs thrive after cryopreservation.
