Regenerative neurology: Siddharthan Chandran, The University of Edinburgh

Disorders of the ageing brain are a major public health threat. Our brains are the most complex organ we have – the last area of human discovery – which explains why in over 40 years we’ve failed to find cures for neurological diseases like Parkinson’s, MS and Motor Neurone Disease. Now disruptive technologies, including artificial stem cell creation, are offering opportunities to accelerate the discovery of new medicines and we are on the cusp of a revolution for regenerative neurology. ---------- Creating the Future from Weatherbys Private Bank is an annual event created following our Creating the Future conference. Our twelve speakers are tackling some of the world’s most challenging and exciting issues: the future of democracy, how recent advances in neuroscience and technology are set to revolutionise medicine and healthcare and the ever more urgent need to prevent climate change to protect the environment.
