Abstract
"Theory of Forms" implies that a genuine version of creatures exists beyond the shapes in this world. Stem cell technology has adopted developmental cues to mimic real life. However, the functionality of the lab-made cells is far from primary ones. Perhaps it is time to switch from analytical to systematic perspective in stem cell science. This may be the way to define new horizons based on the systematic perspective and convergence of science in stem cell biology, bridging the current gap between the shadows of real knowledge in current research and reality in future.
