About the Study
Principal Investigator: Jeffrey Rothstein, MD, PhD (Johns Hopkins)
Site-PI: Michael Benatar, MD, PhD
This is a cross-sectional study in which stems cells are created from skin cells. Skin cells, obtained from a small (3mm) biopsy on the side of the leg, are used to generate induced pleuripotent stem cells (iPS). The goal of this study is to determine whether these stem cells have the expected characteristics of motor neurons and other types of brain cells (astroglia).
