Cell-based therapy based on the transplantation of neural stem/progenitor cells （NSPCs） represents an attractive strategy for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, but obtaining large numbers of these cells is difficult and their differentiation potential is strictly restricted in a spatiotemporally-regulated manner during central nervous system （CNS） development. Therefore, embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells represent an attractive alternative for cell-transplantation therapy in regenerative medicine.展开更多

Our approach is based on leader follower architecture. Multiple surface control （MSC） is used to design consensus controller to make multiple quadrotors construct a formation during flying with the presence of uncertainty item caused by the ground effect during landing or taking off. Simulation results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.展开更多
