Episode notes

Exploring the groundbreaking potential of induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs), including their creation from basic skin cells, differentiation into specific cell types, and the implementation of fail-safe technology as a safety measure. The chapter also discusses the successful application of IPSCs in regenerative medicine, such as in a clinical trial for Parkinson's disease, and delves into the complexities and developments in utilizing mesenchymal stem cells for therapeutic purposes.

Could regenerative medicine transform how we treat disease and even reverse aging? Dr. Adeel Khan shares groundbreaking insights on leveraging stem cells, gene editing, and tissue engineering to unlock healthcare's full potential. Learn how induced pluripotent stem cells are being used to regrow neurons in Parkinson's patients' brains. Hear about revolutionary gene therapies that could permanently alter genetics to cure chronic illnesses. Discover the incredible possibilities emerging at the intersection of cellular medicine, CRISPR, and 3D-printed organs. But also gain wisdom for navigating this complex landscape responsibly. Dr. Khan provides an accessible primer on the risks, limitations, and realistic timeline for bringing these powerful technologies into standard practice. The future of medicine has arrived - tune in to stay at the cutting edge of what will soon be possible.
