Opportunities and challenges for the use of induced pluripotent stem cells in modelling neurodegenerative disease

Adult-onset neurodegenerative diseases are among the most difficult human health conditions to model for drug development. Most genetic or toxin-induced cell and animal models cannot faithfully recapitulate pathology in disease-relevant cells, making it excessively challenging to explore the potenti...
