Leveraging Human Stem Cells to Treat Disease
7 October 2024
12:30 PM - 1:30 PM CDT
Session Description
Certain limitations have beset researchers for decades — animal studies don’t always translate to humans, and some research is too invasive to be performed. With the power of stem cells, researchers can precisely model debilitating diseases and develop cutting edge therapies with the potential to transform millions of lives. Experts in the field will share how this revolutionary technique is producing breakthroughs on intractable diseases like dementias, psychiatric disorders, epilepsy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
