Summary:
WASHINGTON - Scientists working in mice said they had found a way to identify master cells in the brain and grow them in large batches — a potential way of helping patients grow their own brain tissue transplants. The scientists said they had found a process to make the cells multiply, which would be crucial in fighting degenerative brain diseases like Parkinson’s and Huntington’s.
