Method of the Year 2009: iPS cells

Nature Methods has selected induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells as its Method of the Year 2009. Now that the generation of iPS cells is becoming routine, researchers can use them as a tool to make discoveries in disease and basic biology.

The most excellent invention in human history

What would have happened if those iPS cells taken from the boy with atrophy were reimplanted into his spinal cord at the lesion site?

[@AzharRafiq]

very informative!

[@defruit2160]

I still don't get how to transform the ips embryonic cell into a specialised cell

[@ushnishsengupta6916]

The link seems to be broken.

[@nsaxe001]

Really? I wonder why "God" gave us so many of them and made them so crucial to our development.

[@deefromott]

no way

[@samjose751]

Quite the comments here. Perhaps one day 'idiocy' will be reversed or removed from its carriers by iPS cells.

@ilovefloor2395 Yeah, English people speaking in English is a massive mindfuck eh?!

[@LeRoux1809]

Optogenetics > iPS cells

[@nsaxe001]

Uh, no they don't. And it's funny that you talk about mutilating language with that atrocious grammar.

Are the researchers still alive?What they are doing since last 9 years?I think they are wasting both money & time.They did nothing on eye.
