About Program
“Stem Cell and Regenarative Medicine Master Program” is offered by our experienced academic staff, and is organised under the Department of Interdisciplinary Stem Cell and Regenarative Medicine at Ankara University Graduate School of Health Sciences. Training is done in classrooms and laboratories of the Ankara University Stem Cell Institute. Education language is Turkish-English. Master's Degree in our program offers six professors and one assistant professor education. Our lessons are; Concepts in Regenerative Medicine, Basic Research Techniques 1-2, Haematopoietic Stem Cells, Stem Cell Usage Areas, Flow Cytometry Theoric-Pratics, Basic Concepts in Cardiovascular Regeneration, Mesenchymal Stem Cells, Stem Cell Politics and Bioethics, Seminar and Thesis. With “state of the art” facilities, we provide our outstanding students the opportunity to be involved in research and R&D projects on the national and global scale and moreover students are awarded with scholarships during the course of their studies.
Goals
The main objective of the program is educating participants who has theoretical and a laboratory technical training and equipment, can research with international researchers at the international level and has the ability to develop original and independent scientific thinking for stem cells and regenerative medicine related basics and applications. The researchers are able to use the obtained data in the framework of scientific research and to comply with the code of ethics, to do clinical research in regenerative medicine, tissue engineering and stem cells which are closely associated with each other, can speak a common language in the field of stem cell technologies and can produce projects by establishing national and international cooperation in this field are other objectives of the program.
