Caption: Junying Yu, an assistant scientist with the University of Wisconsin-Madison Primate Research Center and the Genome Center of Wisconsin. Yu is lead author of a paper describing a novel method of reprogramming adult stem cells to create cells that are indistinguishable from embryonic stem cells. Her work was performed by a team in the laboratory of stem cell scientist James Thomson.

Caption: A team in the laboratory of James Thomson (above), a developmental biologist and professor of anatomy at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, reports the genetic reprogramming of human skin cells to create cells indistinguishable from embryonic stem cells. Thomson's team also produced the first successful isolation of human embryonic stem cell lines in 1998.

Caption: The scientific team from the University of Wisconsin-Madison created genetic modifications in skin cells (above) to induce the cells into what scientists call a pluripotent state — a condition that is essentially the same as that of embryonic stem cells. Junying Yu, James Thomson and their colleagues introduced a set of four genes into human fibroblasts, skin cells that are easy to obtain and grow in culture.
