    3D gel stacks can grow enough stem cells to treat brain disease

    Programmed stem cells promise to tackle all kinds of illnesses, but there’s one catch: making them.(Luis M. Molina/Getty Images) It’s hard to cultivate large numbers of them, and the need to grow them on 2D surfaces isn’t very practical. That’s where researchers might come to the rescue: they’ve developed a method of growing neural stem cells in large volumes, but…
