The Clelland lab is devoted to curing neurodegenerative diseases. We are working to create therapies for patients with fatal FTD, ALS, AD, PD and other neurologic diseases
Our team is developing a platform to use physiologically maintained deceased to accelerate the discovery of delivery vectors. We anticipate this will save years in creating new gene therapies. An overview and the ethical considerations is now published in Science. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Discovery research in physiologically maintained deceased
Expanded research opportunities in deceased humans require ongoing ethical inquiry
