Summary:
In the study group of Prof. Dr. Magdalena Götz in the Institute of Stem Cell Research of the Helmholtz Zentrum München and Ludwig Maximilians-University Munich, another step has been taken towards the understanding of processes to be able to substitute for injured brain cells after accidents. Stem cells that originate from supporting cells can evolve again into new nerve cells.
