Scientists have discovered that transplanted stem cell-derived brain cells may do far more than simply survive after a stroke ...

The human brain can do many amazing things, but self-repair is not one of its repertoire of abilities. Once neurons die—from trauma, stroke, or disease—they rarely grow back. Scientists have been ...

Cerebral Palsy Center reports Kidswell Bio is advancing stem cell therapy for cerebral palsy in the U.S., focusing on cells ...

The federal government is looking for researchers who can, in 5 years, develop stem cell treatments to repair brain damage caused by stroke, neurodegeneration, and trauma. The Functional Repair of ...

In an interview published in Brain Medicine, Dr. Alysson Muotri—Professor in the Department of Pediatrics and Cellular and Molecular Medicine at the UC San Diego School of Medicine and director of the ...

Neurons from grafted stem cells contain intrinsic codes for navigating and forming connections, which may improve cell therapy for a brain short-circuited by stroke. Some parts of our bodies bounce ...

A team of scientists—including Agnieszka Ciesielska (left), Barbara Klein (center), and Jeanne Paz (right)—showed that modified stem cells can improve brain activity, even when administered more than ...
