Abstract: Stem cell research and therapy offer promising advancements in medical science, yet awareness remains limited in many semi-urban populations. This study aimed to assess the knowledge and attitude of eligible couples residing in Supela, Bhilai (C.G.) regarding stem cells and their potential applications, particularly in regenerative medicine and cord blood banking. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 100 eligible couples through purposive sampling. Results revealed moderate awareness but significant misconceptions and hesitations toward stem cell donation and usage. Educational interventions are recommended to bridge the knowledge gap and promote informed decision-making.
