1. Neurogenesis from Neural Stem Cells, Ependymal Cells and Fibroblasts
Abstract : Stroke is a major cause of death and disability around the world. Stroke leads to loss of neurons and also other cells in the brain due to lack of blood supply. Currently no therapies are available to treat stroke-related disability. It has been shown that stroke leads to increased neurogenesis, birth of new neurons, within the brain. READ MORE

2. Generation of cortical neurons through reprogramming technology
Abstract : The human cortex is affected by several debilitating acute and chronic neurodegenerative disorders such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Alzheimer’s disease, which target specific types of cortical neurons. Emerging evidence indicates that stem cells and reprogrammed cells can be used to generate human cortical neurons both for cell replacement by transplantation, and for disease modeling and drug screening.

4. Neural Stem and Progenitor Cells as a Tool for Tissue Regeneration
Abstract : Neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPC) can differentiate to neurons and glial cells. NSPC are easily propagated in vitro and are therefore an attractive tool for tissue regeneration. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common cause for death and disabilities. A fundamental problem following TBI is tissue loss. READ MORE

5. Molecular pathways mediating the development of female germ cells
Abstract : In mice, primordial germ cells (PGCs) dramatically increase in their number from 200 cells at 9.5 dpc to 10 000 cells at 12.5 dpc with doubling time of 12.6 hours. READ MORE
