Abstract

Stem cell technology has emerged as a transformative tool in drug discovery and regenerative medicine, offering innovative solutions for disease modeling, drug testing, and personalized treatments. Advances in stem cell research, including induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and organoids, have provided physiologically relevant models for screening potential drug candidates and understanding disease mechanisms. Additionally, stem cell-based regenerative therapies hold significant potential for treating degenerative conditions, including neurological disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and musculoskeletal injuries. This article explores the role of stem cell technology in drug discovery and regenerative medicine, its key applications, associated challenges, and future prospects.
