Scientists in Australia have developed adult induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS) using skin biopsies from patients with Friedreich’s Ataxia. Dr Alice Pebay and Dr Mirella Dottori co leaders of the study from the University of Melbourne, characterised and directed the iPS cells to becomes specific cell types, including heart cells and nerves, which do not […]
