Trailblazing Stem Cell Research: New Hope for Schizophrenia Patients
A recent study led by Dr. Sergiu Pasca at Stanford University suggests that human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) could be used to identify potential new medications for schizophrenia. The research team developed a novel technique to produce astrocytes, star-shaped cells that support neurons, from iPSCs derived from patients with schizophrenia. Astrocytes play a critical […]
