Stem cells hold promise for understanding and treating neurodegenerative diseases, but till now they have failed to accurately model disorders that occur late in life. A study published by Cell Press December 5th in the journal iCell Stem Cell/i has revealed a new method for converting induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into nerve cells that recapitulate features associated with aging as well as Parkinson's disease.

Researchers Accelerate Aging in Stem Cells to Study Neurodegenerative Diseases
