SCR Library - Stem Cell VideosEast of England Stem Cell Network Professor Roger Pedersen, Director of the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute presents five stem cell related webcasts:
An introduction to stem cell biology View The potential of stem cell medicine View Ethics and stem cell research View Stem cell research and the public View Stem cell medicine and Parkinson's disease View European Consortium for Stem Cell Research has three films looking at different aspects of stem cell research. All are the result of a close collaboration between scientists and filmmakers, and are designed to be accessible to a broad general audience aged 14+. The films are ideal for classroom use, conference screenings or just as a source of information for those who would like to know more.
This 15 minute film provides an introduction to the world of stem cell research. It uses hand-drawn animation, cell photography and documentary interviews to capture this cutting-edge area of science. View This 19-minute film aims to encourage open debate about the ethical issues around stem cell research. It is structured in chapters, each addressing a key ethical question. View This six minute film looks at how and why scientists grow stem cells in the Lab. There is a mix of time lapse photography, live action and hand-drawn animation that transports the view into a cell culture lab. Ideal for senior biology classes. View Public Forums Quarterly series of educational sessions designed for the general public. All of these videos can be accessed from the same landing page.
The panel featured five scientists who discussed the state of experiments being done in the laboratory to identify areas of progress and potential. The panel featured four scientists whose research is actively pursuing these goals, who discussed the opportunity, progress, and challenges currently facing the field of tissue engineering. A moderated discussion on Stem Cell Century: Law and Policy for a Breakthrough Technology featuring remarks by the book's author, Russell Korobkin, Professor of Law at UCLA and Visiting Professor at Harvard Law School. Discussants included HSCI's Kevin Eggan; Frances Kamm, Professor of Philosophy at Harvard and Littauer Professor of Philosophy and Public Policy at the Kennedy School of Government, and; Pamela Samuelson, Professor of Law and Information at UC Berkeley and Visiting Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. The panel featured four journalists intimately familiar with the stem cell story, who discussed the challenges and difficulties of covering this, the most important life-sciences story of the decade. The panel featured three of HSCI's leading researchers for an evening of discovery. Drs. Cowan, Daley and Wagers presented the science in easily understood terms and provided the clinical perspective to help illustrate how this science is affecting the outlook for disease treatment. Representatives of three of the world's major religions tangled over the beginnings of human life, the disposal of surplus embryos from in vitro fertilization clinics, and the conduct of embryonic stem cell research at an HSCI public event at Harvard Divinity School. This moderated discussion featured Michael Bellomo, author of The Stem Cell Divide; Eve Herold, author of Stem Cell Wars; and Christopher Thomas Scott, author of Stem Cell Now.

This is a collection of five videos made available by NYSCF:
This video portrays the promise of stem cell therapies for human disease and demonstrates the potential of the research to create opportunities for studying disease fundamentals. View Beating heart tissue made from human embryonic stem cells. View An interview with Susan L. Solomon, NYSCF CEO and Kevin Eggan, PhD, NYSCF Scientific Director at NYSCF's privately funded stem cell laboratory. View The New York Stem Cell Foundation and the 92nd Street Y present a panel discussion entitled, “Stem Cell Research: The Way Forward” View NYSCF scientists and supporters discuss the significance of the New York Stem Cell Foundation's work. View 2007 Disability Employment Awareness Month Keynote Address Jim Langevin, Congressman and quadriplegic from Rhode Island talks about stem cell research (4 minutes) View Northwestern University Human Stem Cell Research Problems and Promise Public outreach program to help nonscientist, students and the general public understand the importance of human stem cell research and its possible impact on our society. Symposium includes topics on:
View The Charlie Rose Science Series: Stem Cell Research The panel discusses the use of stem cells, such as bone marrow transplants, and the hopes for future applications of both adult and embryonic stem cells, both as a way to model and study disease and a possible treatment for a variety of conditions, such as heart and blood disease, diabetes , Parkinson's, Lou Gehrig's disease, Alzheimer's, spinal cord injuries, and cancer. Sir Paul Nurse, President of The Rockefeller University, Doug Melton, Co-director of the Harvard Stem Cell Institute, George Daley of Children's Hospital Boston and the Harvard Stem Cell Institute, Larry Goldstein, director of the UC San Diego Stem Cell program, and Story Landis of the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke are the panelists. View UCLA Center for Society and Genetics Symposium and Conference 2006: Stem Cells February 3-5, 2006 include Stem Cell Research and the Role of Secondary Schools. Viewers must scroll down to the fourth conference webcast to access the Stem Cell Symposium.
Stem Cells 101 and Beyond Divya Mathur and Chris Lengner, researchers from Rudolf Jaenisch's lab at the Whitehead Institute in Massachusetts discuss the basics of stem cell research as well as their latest findings.
