Did you know an “arthritis vaccine” is in development to administer customized drug treatment and cell repair?

Dr. Farshid Guilak is heading up this trailblazing research project, funded by the Arthritis Foundation. He and his team are genetically reprogramming stems cells for desired outcomes.

These “smart” stem cells identify inflamed cells and then go to work repairing damaged cartilage. In addition, they produce and deliver specific therapeutic drugs to stop inflammation.

Learn more about this amazing experiment – and how smart stem cells could revolutionize arthritis treatments in the future.
