Stem cells are a type of cell that can reproduce indefinitely and can develop into a wide range of cell types. They are found everywhere inside the human body, and they help to keep us alive and healthy. Scientists have learned how to turn stem cells into whatever cells the body needs, from fibroblasts to neurons. This could help to cure serious diseases like Parkinson’s disease or Alzheimer’s disease. In this article, we will introduce stem cells, describe their unique capabilities and discuss ways that scientists are using them to cure certain brain diseases.
