Excited to announce our latest study, out today in Cell Stem Cell, where we report the largest collection of patient stem cell models of multiple sclerosis to date and use them to show that glia – integral support cells in the brain – contribute to the disease. This work, led by NYSCF's Valentina Fossati and Paul Tesar of Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine, highlights the need for new therapeutic strategies that go beyond modulating the immune system: https://lnkd.in/etpnQzHY
About us
The mission of The New York Stem Cell Foundation is to cure the major diseases of our time through stem cell research. In addition to conducting innovative stem cell research in our own safe haven laboratories, NYSCF also supports and convenes global stem cell thought leaders and the broader stem cell community – all with the focus on getting to patients. Since our founding in 2005, NYSCF has been able to achieve outsized results in a relatively short period of time thanks to private philanthropy. The NYSCF Research Institute, an independent laboratory, is a non-profit accelerator that serves to bridge the ongoing gap between research institutions and pharmaceutical and biotech companies by reducing the cost, time, and risk that historically inhibit the development of new treatments and cures. In just over one decade, NYSCF has created not only foundational tools for using stem cells in basic research, but also pioneering technologies that will allow stem cells to be used therapeutically. By pursuing and supporting only the most promising stem cell research and technologies, in our own laboratories and in partnership with leading institutions around the world, NYSCF serves as a catalyst in this transformational field, advancing our mission to accelerate cures for the major diseases of our time.

Stem cell research offers unprecedented potential for personalized medicine, yet progress is hampered by a lack of diverse representation in biobanks. Expanding our Diversity Biobank is essential to ensure that all populations benefit from the advances in medical science. We are happy to share an op-ed from our President and CEO, Jennifer Raab, highlighting the vital role of diversity in stem cell research. As a leader in this field, NYSCF is at the forefront of transforming how we approach and address some of the most challenging diseases.

Stem cells are modern medicine’s diverse future

I was excited to welcome our State Senator Brad Hoylman-Sigal to The New York Stem Cell Foundation Research Institute yesterday. During the visit he had a chance to see our state-of-the-art labs, and, more importantly, speak to the next generation of scientists and life science professionals, our interns. Senator Hoylman-Sigal has shown enormous commitment to growing the life sciences sector and STEM talent pipeline in NYC. We are very grateful for his support and look forward to building on our work to enhance the life sciences in NYC.

Looking after Bronx patients with genetic problems, using medical genomic information and molecular genomic assays, trying to understand how to bring epigenetics into practical use in medicine.
Please spread the word, we're building the team at the New York Center for Rare Diseases #NYCRD. A research laboratory technologist position is now available, cell systems and CRISPR editing to unlock diagnoses of rare diseases. https://lnkd.in/e_yrRsYa Montefiore Health System Albert Einstein College of Medicine PacBio GeneDx Google Health The New York Stem Cell Foundation Research Institute
