Let's Talk iPSCs and Their Value in Tackling Neurodegenerative Diseases

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have become an invaluable tool for modeling neurodegenerative disorders and are increasingly used in drug discovery, safety pharmacology and toxicology, and clinical applications to treat human disease. In this session, Dr. Mark Cookson, senior investigator at the NIH National Institute on Aging, talks about the unique aspects of this collection and how it can benefit the wider scientific community in their shared quest to understand and fight ADRD.
