Stem Cell Consortium
Columbia Neural Stem Cell Program Mission Statement
The Columbia Neural Stem Cell Program is committed to exploring the biology and therapeutic
potential of stem cells for the treatment of neurological disorders. Neural stem cells can be
derived from embryonic sources, or from specialized niches in the adult nervous system. Because
they have the capacity to generate all of the multiple cell types found in the brain and spinal
cord, neural stem cells have the potential to repair tissue injured by trauma or disease. Through
joint efforts to promote collaboration, education, and investigation, Columbia scientists in the
Neural Stem Cell Program are working to bring this promise closer to reality.
