A Non-Destructive Electrical Assay of Stem Cell Differentiation Based on Semiconductor Biosensing

Invited for this month′s cover is the collaborating groups of Prof. Sho Hideshima at Tokyo City University, Prof. Tetsuya Osaka at Waseda University, and Prof. Hiroaki Tateno at National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology, Japan. The cover picture shows a semiconductor-based biosensor with potential to detect the presence of a specific biomarker of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSCs) in a culture medium. More information can be found in the Research Article by S. Hideshima, T. Osaka, and co-workers.
