Researchers at Lund University's Lund Stem Cell Center have created a method that makes it possible to transform the brain’s support cells into parvalbumin-positive cells. These cells act as the brain’s rapid-braking system and are significantly involved in schizophrenia, epilepsy and other neurological conditions. Parvalbumin cells play a central role in keeping brain activity in equilibrium. The
