PhD program at inStem – Midterm Entry Stream 2024-25

Institute for Stem Cell Science and Regenerative Medicine

Vision

Stem cell research has progressed at a phenomenal pace and is rapidly contributing to providing new avenues to prevent and cure many currently untreatable diseases. The Institute for Stem Cell Science and Regenerative Medicine (DBT-InStem) has set up excellent research facilities focused on this area, placing immensely talented faculty in the vibrant and nurturing ecosystem of the Bangalore Life Sciences Cluster (BLiSC). State-of-the art research laboratories, innovative well-funded research programmes and established procedures and policy have positioned DBT-inStem well, for achieving time-bound goals.

We envisage inStem as the “go to” place for stem cell research and application in India and a major contributor on the international stage in stem cell biology. While facilitating increased translation of the benefits of stem cells to society through regenerative medicine, inStem is also committed to social outreach. Read more
