UCI stem cell researchers have received $1.6 million from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine to create a new line of neural stem cells that can be used to treat chronicle cervical spinal cord injury. Aileen Anderson, director of the Sue & Bill Gross Stem Cell Research Center at UCI, will lead the effort. The […]
A UCI stem cell researcher will receive a $1.15 million CIRM grant to advance the study of brain immune cells and their role in Alzheimer’s disease.
Leslie Thompson of the Sue & Bill Gross Stem Cell Research Center has been awarded $505,717 by the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine to continue her CIRM-funded effort to create stem cell treatments for Huntington’s disease.
The treatment for people with spinal cord injury was created in the lab of UCI neurobiologist Hans Keirstead.
Reflecting the UCI’s deep commitment to shaping the future of healthcare, Sue & Bill Gross Hall: A CIRM Institute is the first major stem cell center in Southern California, a region known for biomedical innovation.
Just three years after the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine awarded its first round of research grants, the funding has…
Scientists throughout California and in Australia celebrate Stem Cell Awareness Day Thursday, Sept. 25, to foster greater understanding about stem cell research and the range of potential applications for disease and injury. The California Institute for Regenerative Medicine – the state’s stem cell research funding agency – and Monash Immunology and Stem Cell Laboratories in […]
