Stem cells are crucial for the development and maintenance of various tissues in the body. In the context of neurodegenerative disorders, stem cells have been explored as a potential therapeutic tool. This research activity aims to investigate the properties and behavior of stem cells derived from wildtype and Friedreich’s ataxia mice models. The study will focus on understanding the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying the differences in stem cell behavior between the two models, with the ultimate goal of identifying potential therapeutic targets for Friedreich’s ataxia.
