Sibling synergy

Terry R J Lappin. Stem Cells Transl Med. 2015 Jan.

Abstract

The sister journals Stem Cells and Stem Cells Translational Medicine have synergistic roles, although there is often considerable overlap in content between them. Whereas Stem Cells is primarily concerned with advancing basic knowledge of mechanism and function, Stem Cells Translational Medicine is geared toward the application of such advances for clinical benefit.
