Cellular Brain Repair for Parkinson’s Disease: Is the Answer in the (Biomaterial) Matrix?
Hear Eilís Dowd, PhD highlight her lab's recent data demonstrating that dopaminergic cell replacement in the Parkinsonian rodent brain, using both fetal and induced stem cell-derived cells, is enhanced when the cells are transplanted in a neurotrophin-enriched collagen hydrogel.
Protocol Preview: Creating an Artificial Human Thymus in Mice
The majority of treatments for immunodeficiencies are temporary fixes, in part due to a lack of preclinical models that can accurately predict immune responses in humans. However, a novel model recently published in Nature Methods has potential to greatly improve future immune response studies, which we review in this blog post.
