About the Del E. Webb Neuroscience, Aging and Stem Cell Research Center
At our center we have two approaches…we want to protect cells in the brain, particularly nerve cells, from a variety of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s and we’re also trying to regenerate neurons and associated cells.
The Neuroscience, Aging and Stem Cell Research Center is focused on producing new drugs to protect the brain, heart, and pancreas and developing regenerative brain, heart, and diabetes therapies using stem cells. Basic molecular research underpins a systems approach to translational research aimed at expediting the pathway from discovery science to clinical application.
