Episode 5- Epigenetic Reprogramming with Dr Vincent Pasque
In this episode of the Why Science Initiative, we discuss with Dr. Vincent Pasque Epigenetic Reprogramming and its applications in stem cell research. This may seem like a daunting subject but Dr Pasque, with the University of Leuven, does a fantastic job of explaining the basics and how his research has led to some remarkable opportunities in understanding early embryo development. We discuss the process that is taken to reprogram cells from sources like urine or blood and transform them into active stem cells capable of dividing and organizing into early embryo-like structures allowing for noninvasive and ethical research into early human development.
This episode is perfect for anyone that may not have a deep understanding of the research that is possible with epigenetic reprogramming and stem cells. Please join us as we explore the fascinating discoveries around embryo modeling and epigenetic tools, and as always please subscribe to be notified of similar episodes.
