Development of IPS from Donated Somatic Cells of Patients with Neurological Diseases
This study collects skin cells or a few hairs from people with neurodegenerative diseases, and from healthy donors, to turn them into stem cells in the lab. Researchers plan to use those cells to study disease and test drugs. No treatment is given, and the cells are not meant for transplant. No phase is listed.
You may qualify if
- Donors suffering from different (specified) neurodegenerative disorders scheduled to undergo surgery for medical reasons or will donate a single or a few hairs--to be removed intact from the scull or other areas in the body.
- Healthy donors scheduled to undergo surgery for medical reasons or will donate a single or a few hairs--to be removed intact from the scull or other areas in the body.
You're excluded if
- None
