The University of California, Davis, set a new record for external research funding, receiving $968 million in awards in the fiscal year 2020-21, up $27 million from the previous record set last year. A major reason for this years growth was increased funding related to medicine and public health Continue reading →

Parkinsons disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the United States, affecting at least 500,000 people. Its a progressive disease, but can be managed with treatment. For now, the condition is diagnosed by symptoms rather than specific lab tests. Continue reading →

A recent study of immune cells derived from human stem cells shows that experimental antibodies for Parkinsons and Alzheimers can trigger harmful brain inflammation, offering one possible explanation for clinical trials dismal failure rates. In the 1990s, drug makers began developing antibodies for treating Alzheimers and Parkinsons therapies designed to clear aggregates of proteins found in the brains of people with the diseases.

WEST LAFAYETTE When a muscle is damaged, resident stem cells mediate the repair of the injured tissue. At the same time, circulating immune cells race to the site to aid the repair. The presence of these infiltrating immune cells at injury sites raises questions about their role in coordinating with muscle stem cells to build or regenerate muscle tissue. Continue reading →

As expected, the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) has updated its guidelines for stem cell research. The marquee guideline is the relaxation of the limit of 14 days on how long a human embryo may be kept alive in a lab. According to the ISSCR the update reflects emerging advances including stem cell-based embryo models, human embryo research, chimeras, organoids, genome editing and ectogenesis. Continue reading →
