In this certificate program, biomedical scientists dedicated to advancing cell-based therapies will receive training in research methods, laboratory techniques, good manufacturing practices, and biomedical ethics.
They also participate in a 12-month internship at one of these outstanding collaborating host institutions: Cedars-Sinai Board of Governors Regenerative Medicine Institute, The Gladstone Institute, The Institute for Stem Cell Biology at UC Santa Cruz, the Stanford University Institute for Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, Takeda California, and the UC Davis Stem Cell Program.
Since 2008, The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) has funded this program, and offers ten paid internship positions a year through its CIRM Bridges initiative.
Over 100 Cal Poly Humboldt CIRM Bridges alumni are working in the field as clinicians, researchers, and/or laboratory technicians.
