What can stems cells do?
Stem cells could also be used someday to replace or repair tissue damaged by disease or injury. Stem cell technology has been used for more than 20 years in bone marrow transplants, where the patient's bone marrow stem cells are replaced with those from a healthy, matching donor.

How this new discovery concerning stem cells might help to treat diseases such as alzheimers disease or parkinsons diseaase?
The discovery concerning stem cells could potentially lead to the development of stem cell-based therapies for diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Stem cells have the ability to differentiate into various cell types, so they could be used to replace damaged cells in the brain associated with these diseases. Additionally, stem cells may help in understanding the underlying mechanisms of these diseases and in developing new drugs for treatment.
What connects the spinal cord to the brain?
Brain stem
Is the brain stem the base of the brain?
