Transcription factor programming of human ES cells generates functional neurons expressing both upper and deep layer cortical markers.

Human neurodegenerative disorders affect specific types of cortical neurons. Efficient protocols for the generation of such neurons for cell replacement, disease modeling and drug screening are highly warranted. Current methods for the production of cortical neurons from human embryonic stem (ES) ce...
