Healing potential discovered in everyday human brain cells

Healing potential discovered in everyday human brain cells: "UF McKnight Brain Institute scientists document for the first time the ability of common human brain cells to morph into different cell types. They used mature human brain cells taken from epilepsy patients to generate new brain tissue in mice. Furthermore, they can coax these cells to produce large amounts of new brain cells in culture, potentially creating a source of cells that can be used to fight a host of other brain disorders."
