Creating Clinically Relevant Novel 3-Dimensional Neuronal-Glial Cell Models for Understanding the Molecular Pathology of Multiple System Atrophy’s Neurodegeneration

Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) is a rare, progressive neurological disorder that is without cure, that causes nerve cell loss in the brain, leading to issues with movement, balance, blood pressure, bladder control, and digestion, as the autonomic system is also affected. Read more
