Investigators in the Stem Cell Institute, University of Minnesota, in collaboration with the Departments of Neuroscience and Neurosurgery, are characterizing how neural stem cells, multipotent adult stem cells, or embryonic stem cells become mature neurons (nerve cells) and glial cells (non-nerve tissue of the brain and spinal cord). Studies employ innovative in vitro (in the lab) culture systems and state-of-the-art in vivo models (in the body or an organism) to determine the full potential of neural cells generated from stem cells.
