Uncovering Molecular Mechanisms of C9orf72- and NEK1-related ALS Pathogenesis Using iPSC-Derived Motor Neurons

Description:

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor neuron (MN) degeneration and resulting in progressive paralysis and death. ALS is genetically heterogeneous, disease pathophysiology is not completely understood, and there are no effective drug therapies. To develop broadly applicable therapeutics, we examine disease mechanisms in the...
