David M. Holtzman, MD of the Washington University School of Medicine discusses the mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration and how microglia and specific microglial genes such as TREM2 influence neurodegeneration in the setting of Aβ and tau pathology. Learn how this line of study may lead to new therapeutics and diagnostic testing for Alzheimer's disease.

Marius Wernig, MD, PhD, discusses how his lab has worked to convert non-neuronal cell types (lymphocytes, pluripotent stem cells, fibroblasts, hepatocytes, lymphocytes) to neurons. The lab is now working on identifying the molecular mechanisms underlying induced lineage fate changes, the phenotypic consequences of disease-causing mutations in human neurons and other neural lineages.
