Surgeons have transplanted dopamine-producing cells derived from human embryonic stem cells directly into the brains of people with Parkinson’s disease, marking the first time this specific cell ...

The cerebral cortex is densely packed with different nerve cells that enable us to perceive, think and act. Yet how these cell types arise while the brain develops is still not fully understood.

Stem cells made a public splash with large research breakthroughs in the 90s and early 2000s. However, since then, stem cells have largely been adopted by the alternative medicine and wellness world ...
