But there must be challenges, right? With IPSE research, it can't be that easy. Of course not. One of the big ones is making sure these IPSE brain cells, they're really high quality and mature. They need to be just like the cells in a real human brain or our models won't be accurate. It's not just about making a neuron, it's about making the right neuron at the right stage of development. Exactly. And it gets trickier with diseases that show up later in life, like Alzheimer's. Right, because those IPSEs, they're like brand new cells again. So how do they, like, how do you make a cell age in a petri dish? Good question. Researchers are working on techniques for that right now they can expose the cells to different kinds of stress or they can change certain genes that are involved in aging. | ↗ |
