Modeling Human Neurological Disease with Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

.

This webinar provides an overview of the features and applications of induced pluripotent stem cells with respect to neurological disease modeling. Dr. Vivian Lee (ϳԹ) discusses the workflow from patient-derived somatic cells to fully-differentiated neural cell types, and compares different strategies for neural induction. Dr. Marina Bershteyn (University of California, San Francisco) discusses how she uses patient-derived iPS cells to study disorders of brain development, with a focus on lissencephaly.
