The complementary nature of iPSCs and animal models in MS research

Valentina Fossati, PhD, The Jackson Laboratory, comments on the complementary nature of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and animal models in multiple sclerosis (MS) research. Dr Fossati highlights that iPSCs are reductionist models that can exclude confounding factors and focus on cell-autonomous effects, while animal models provide a more comprehensive in vivo picture.
