iPSC-based treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD): The path to success requires more than blind faith

iPSC-based treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD): The path to success requires more than blind faith

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold great promise for the treatment of human diseases. Two recent first-of-its-kind clinical case reports on the iPSC-based treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) highlight the hopes and challenges associated with the clinical application of iPSCs...
