Dr. Gupta is carrying out his post doctoral studies in the Buter Laboratory in UCLA. He is applying his his knowledge of embryology to stem cells for developing regenerative therapies to treat spinal cord injuries. In this talk, he will discuss how understanding the logic for spinal cord development led us to derive diverse sensory neuronal classes from embryonic stem cells. The spinal sensory neurons enableus to perceive our environment through modalities that are lost in spinal injury patients. These ESC derived senory neurons can help regain sensation in spina cord injury patients through r
