GARVAN INSTITUTE OF MEDICAL RESEARCH Stem cell models of the retina and optical nerve have been used to identify previously unknown genetic markers of glaucoma, in research jointly led by scientists from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research, the University of Melbourne, and the Centre for Eye Research Australia. The findings open the door to...

A stem cell model could help unravel the complex biology behind some psychiatric disorders
by The Mount Sinai Hospital Graphical abstract. Credit: Cell Reports (2022). DOI: 10.1016/j.celrep.2022.110877 Researchers from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have applied a novel stem cell model to map disease risk variants in human neurons, which could help provide insights into the biological mechanisms that underlie neuropsychiatric disorders such as autism and schizophrenia. The...
