About the editors
Peiman Hematti, MD is Professor of Medicine in section of Hematology/Oncology, UW-Madison School of Medicine and Public Health, with joint appointments in departments of pediatrics, surgery and biomedical engineering. He is director of Clinical Hematopoietic Cell Processing Laboratory, and medical director of Apheresis and Hematopoietic Cell Collection facility at University of Wisconsin-Madison. As a bone marrow stem cell transplant physician, his major clinical research interest is in immunology of transplantation and use of novel cellular therapies for malignant and non-malignant disorders, including use of bone marrow stem cells in cardiovascular medicine. His current laboratory research focuses on immunobiology of stem cell transplantation with a special focus on investigating the immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties of macrophages, including their interactions with biomaterials used in regenerative medicine. He has been a co-author in more than 100 peer-reviewed manuscripts, 10 book chapters, and has been co-editor of two other books in the field of stem cells and regenerative medicine. He has been inventor of several patents issued and filed in the field of cellular therapy and regenerative medicine. He is a co-founder and chair of the Scientific Advisory Board for Cellular Logistics Inc.
Amish N. Raval MD is an Associate Professor of Medicine and Biomedical Engineering at the University of Wisconsin. He received his MD at the U. of Western Ontario, where he completed Internal Medicine and Cardiology Residency. He subsequently completed his Interventional Cardiology Fellowship at Georgetown University/Washington Hospital Center, and later, he joined the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, Bethesda. Thereafter, he became a Faculty member at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health where he is Di^12 cardiovascular regenerative medicine clinical trials ranging from Phase 1 to 3. He has served as a scientific advisor for several biotech companies and is Chairman of the Board for Cellular Logistics Inc, which is a biotech company that is developing innovative biomaterial solutions to enhance stem cell retention for the treatment of advanced cardiovascular disease.
