Scientists from Duke-NUS Medical School and their collaborators have come up with new methods to cultivate brain cells from stem cells to treat and study neurodegenerative diseases. This novel technology forms the basis of two recent research projects under the newly established GK Goh Center for Neuroscience (the GK Goh Center) at Duke-NUS, offering hope for new treatments to patients suffering from neurological conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, ischemic stroke and Parkinson’s Disease.
