Cardiovascular Applications of Stem Cells

Dr. Khawaja Husnain Haider is currently a Professor of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology (Stem cells and Gene Therapy) and Chairman of the Basic Sciences Department (Medical Program) at Sulaiman AlRajhi University. Before his current assignment, he served in several prestigious institutions in various parts of the world. He has also served as Principal Investigator (PI) and Co-PI on multiple National Institute of Health (NIH) funded stem cell research projects. He has been on the editorial boards of various research journals and an invited reviewer for several respected international journals. His research focuses on using DNA, miRNAs, and stem cells as “drugs,” a topic that has gained popularity in regenerative medicine. He has published nearly 325 book chapters, abstracts, and research papers in various books and leading research journals, including Circulation, Circulation Research, Cardiovascular Research, JCMM, the Journal of Biological Chemistry, Cell Cycle, Basic Research in Cardiology, and Antioxidant Redox Signaling. He has also given numerous presentations and edited seven books covering various facets of stem cells and their applications from drug to drug development.
