Pluripotent cells, including embryonic stem (ES) and induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, are used to investigate the genetic and epigenetic underpinnings of human diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, autism, and cancer. Mechanisms of somatic cell reprogramming to an embryonic pluripotent state are explored, utilizing patient-specific pluripotent cells to model and analyze neurodegenerative diseases.
