Utilising Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells in Neurodegenerative Disease Research: Focus on Glia

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a self-renewable pool of cells derived from an organism’s somatic cells. These can then be programmed to other cell types, including neurons. Use of iPSCs in research has been two-fold as they have been used for human disease modelling as well as for the po...
