On a website especially set up for this purpose, anybody can submitted current questions about stem cells. Scientists then agree to answer the questions in short videos. The videos will be published via social media channels from 9 October -  Stem Cell Awareness Day.

For scientists in North Rhine-Westphalia, the campaign will be coordinated by the Stem Cell Network NRW. All members were called upon to produce short videos on the questions submitted. Great video contributions have already been produced, which will be published from Oct 9th onwards via the social media channels of the network (Twitter, Facebook, Youtube) and will also be permanently available on our website. Further video contributions are always welcome!
