An Autologous Stem Cell-Based Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease
A research team, led by Harvard’s Kwang-Soo Kim, PhD, harvested cells from a person suffering from Parkinson’s disease, created induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and differentiated them into dopamine-producing neurons, which were ultimately transplanted into that person’s brain.
