California Stem Cell Treatment Center

California Stem Cell Treatment Center is a clinical organization specializing in the isolation and application of autologous adipose-derived stem cells. Founded by Dr. Mark Berman and Dr. Elliot Lander, the center utilizes a point-of-care surgical process to extract stromal vascular fraction (SVF) from a patient's own fat tissue for the treatment of various degenerative and inflammatory conditions. The organization also established the Cell Surgical Network, an international affiliation of physicians who utilize their standardized protocols for regenerative medicine. The company's operations have been central to landmark legal challenges regarding the FDA's authority to regulate autologous cell therapies as drugs. Their services target a wide range of therapeutic areas including orthopedics, neurology, and autoimmune disorders.
