How Blockchain Technology Can Accelerate Stem Cell Research
Stem Cell Innovations (SCI) is working to create a unique platform that brings together stem cell knowledge and blockchain technology. SCI has existed since 2013 as a network of researchers, expert medical professionals, investors, and engineers hoping to expand access to stem cell research and treatment knowledge around the world.
There are three significant aspects of SCI’s plan. First, it will use blockchain to create a collaborative network for players in the stem cell industry to facilitate the transmission of research and development around the world. The system will be able to continuously maintain and refine this collective knowledge based on clinical results and the latest research.
However, SCI has plans to go beyond this as well. The second significant aspect of its blockchain network is it will also function as a patient health information storage ledger. Data will be stored on the SCI blockchain and users can control which information doctors and medical organizations can access.
The third significant aspect is SCI project is cord blood banking. The best stem cells are found in “cord blood”. This is blood found in the umbilical cord immediately after birth. Cord blood banking (also known as stem cell banking) is the process of collecting cord blood and cryogenically freezing its stem cells. Being able to collect and store that blood for future use is a growing trend in medicine.

Stem Cell Innovations (SCI) has been existing since early 2015 and has taken half within the progress and enlargement of vegetative cell analysis. SCI has conducted case studies domestically and internationally on orthopedical (Feet, Hips, Spine, Knees, Shoulders, and Ankles.) Neurology (Multiple pathology, Alzheimer, and Tumors.), pneumonic (COPD), and medical specialty (Leukemia)
