Funding for better understanding of neural stem cells

Study to investigate how neural stem cells differ from each other may contribute to the future development of better treatments for conditions such as dementia, psychiatric disorders and brain tumors A team of scientists led by a researcher from Plymouth University has received funding of more than 400,000 from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council to investigate how neural stem cells differ from each other. The study's findings could hold the key to the future use of neural stem cells in treatments to eradicate neurological conditions such as dementia and brain tumours.
