The interplay of peripheral of immune cells associated cytokines with induced pluripotent stem cell astrocytes; implications for Parkinson’s Disease
Professor Maeve Caldwell is a member of the academic staff of the Discipline of Physiology, School of Medicine, Trinity College Dublin. Her lab is interested in utilising human pluripotent stem cell derived neural lineage cells to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms of neurodegeneration in Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. She is particularly interested in the role astrocytes may play in inflammation in these devastating conditions.
