In 2009, Dr. Sebastiano completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Stanford University, where he was among the first to demonstrate that iPSCs can be efficiently derived, genetically modified, and implemented for cell therapy in genetic diseases (Sebastiano et al., 2014, Science Translational Medicine).
