Dr Yvonne Couch - Stem Cells

Dr Yvonne Couch - Stem Cells

Dr Yvonne Couch, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

Today Yvonne is talking science for, not opinions (although a few may creep in). This particular post was inspired by her recent attendance at an ARUK event. Almost everyone attending was working on clinical cohorts and everyone else, with the exception of Yvonne, was working on iPSCs. So today's blog is about induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC); what they are, why people use them and what they could be used for in dementia research.

It is her passion for problem solving and love of science that drives her, in advancing our knowledge of disease.
