Recent Developments in Cardiovascular Stem Cells

The goal of "Recent Developments" is to provide a concise but comprehensive overview of new advances in cardiovascular research, which we hope will keep our readers abreast of recent scientific discoveries and facilitate discussion, interpretation, and integration of the findings. This will enable readers who are not experts in a particular field to grasp the significance and effect of work performed in other fields. It is our hope and expectation that these "Recent Development" articles will help readers to gain a broader awareness and a deeper understanding of the status of research across the vast landscape of cardiovascular research-The Editors.
