New Title and New Expanded Focus in 2010
Cellular Reprogramming
Reprogramming mechanisms have always been a subject of interest for Cloning and Stem Cells, but it is appropriate at this point to recognize the change in emphasis of the research in the field and rename the Journal with this very important, exciting, and rapidly expanding aspect of biology — Cellular Reprogramming.

Cellular Reprogramming, (formerly Cloning and Stem Cells), reflects the new focus in this evolving field. Advances in reprogramming cellular mechanisms are transforming biomedical research and should offer new insights on the etiology, development, and potential treatment of various diseases. Cloning and Stem Cells, which has long focused on many aspects of cellular reprogramming, has been renamed in recognition of the rapidly increasing importance of this particular biological field of study. The Journal will emphasize novel approaches for understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie the phenomenon of reprogramming. The Journal will continue to publish papers concerned with:
- Somatic cell nuclear transfer and reprogramming in early embryos
- Embryonic stem cells
- Nuclear transfer stem cells (stem cells derived from nuclear transfer embryos)
- Generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells and/or potential for cell-based
therapies
- Epigenetics
- Adult stem cells and pluripotency
- And much more…
