Hingtgen, Ph.D. has received the UCRF Innovation Award!   "Our previous work has demonstrated that neural stem cell (NSC)-based therapies could effectively treat Glioblastoma, however limitations in clinically relevant sources NSCs has prevented the advancement of this approach.  We proposed to use cutting-edge technology in cellular reprogramming to develop and assess a novel type of NSC derived from fibroblasts.  The ultimate goal is to eventually allow the generation of personalized patient-specific NSC-based therapies for treatment of aggressive and deadly Glioblastoma."</p>]]></content:encoded>
