Summary:

Scientists at Harvard University have identified key compounds that stimulate stem cell growth in the brain, which may one day lead to restored function for people affected by Parkinson's disease, strokes, multiple sclerosis, and a wide range of neurological disorders.

Commentary: Hopefully this finding will improve the quality of life of patients with neurological disorders.
