STEM CELL INITIATIVE for neuromuscular diseases. ” use induced pluripotent stem cell technology to create muscle stem cells carrying a healthy copy of the gene that is mutated in human patients with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. She will then assess the ability of the stem cells to engraft and generate new muscle in mice with a form of the disorder. With this award, Stanford has received about $277 M from the stem cell agency”. ”
