Can the Brain Be Repaired by Replacing Its Cells?
Description
In this episode of Neuroscience Perspectives, Steven Goldman, MD, PhD, URMC Distinguished Professor in Neurosciences at the University of Rochester Medical Center, discusses groundbreaking neuroscience research on brain cell repair, stem cell therapy, and regenerative medicine. Learn how his early research in birds has led to research that shows the adult brain can generate new neurons that integrate into key motor circuits. These findings demonstrate that stimulating natural brain processes may help repair damaged neural networks in Huntington's and other diseases. Dr. Goldman described decades of research in glial cells that are shaping our understanding of brain health and allowing the exploration of new approaches to treating Huntington’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and Alzheimer’s disease. #Neuroscience #BrainHealth #StemCells #Alzheimers #MultipleSclerosis #RegenerativeMedicine #Neurodegeneration #Podcast
