Project Description
This project is to explore the concept of Stem Cell Therapy and its application to diabetic polyneuropathy or DPN, a side effect of diabetes in which nerve damage occurs within multiple parts of the body. The research will go over the general process of how Stem Cell Therapy can be implemented with patients who have DPN and see if it is a possible and efficient treatment option.
