	Description:		Guest: Dr. Clive Svendsen is the Executive Director of the Regenerative Medicine Institute at Cedars-Sinai. His lab uses stem cells to develop models and treatments for neurodegenerative diseases. He talks about using stem cells to model spinal muscular atrophy and the blood-brain barrier, and his cell-gene therapy trial for ALS. Featured Products and Resources: Keep current with the latest neural cell research. Take a 10-minute cell therapy survey The Stem Cell Science Round Up Embryonic Angiogenesis – Monocytes deposit migrasomes to promote angiogenesis in chick embryos. Stem Cell Crosstalk with the Microenvironment – Ras drives malignancy in squamous cell carcinoma through aberrant crosstalk between cancer stem cells and their microenvironment. The Extracellular Matrix and Naive Pluripotency – A three-dimensional extracellular matrix-rich environment preserves long-term feeder-free naive hiPSC self-renewal. Cell Senescence in Alzheimer’s Disease – Alzheimer’s disease brains have high proportions of neurons that express senescence markers. Photo Reference: Courtesy of Dr. Clive Svendsen
