Using stem cells to model health and disease in a dish

A stem cell technique developed over a decade ago that allows scientists to grow many types of cells is bearing fruit in the lab, allowing our neuroscientists to grow a range of brain cells to study development and disease.

In this video, Crick scientist Jasmine Harley explains how they make induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells and why they're used in research.
