Scientists convert human skin cells directly into brain cells

So whom is going to take on the challenge of testing this in humans? ASA? NSA? WSO? None of these will because all they are is press release organizations. So if you have a spare 10 million or so you can hire your own researchers to do this. That is the only way this will get done in the next 30 years.
Or maybe you'd rather support these other neuron creation ideas;
So many places to get stem cells from;

1.  brain biopsies 

2.  Blood

3.  Bone marrow stem cells

4.  Skin cells 

5.  Re-programme other cells to become nerve cells, directly in the brain. 

6.  UK scientists use 3D printer to print human stem cells

7.  Reprogramming Adult Schwann Cells to Stem Cell-like Cells by Leprosy Bacilli Promotes Dissemination of Infection

8.  Fat cells 

9.  Urine 

10.  Bone marrow
11.  Placenta
12.  Umbilical cord blood
13.  hair follicles
14.  menstrual blood
15.   liver cells
16.  Dental pulp

17.  Stem Cell Scaffolding

18.  Converting fibroblasts into functional neurons 

19.  Cells grown from the lining of their nose.

 

Scientists convert human skin cells directly into brain cells
The study is unusual because, unlike many cell conversion techniques, the cells did not return to a stem cell stage first - they converted directly into brain cells - thus avoiding the risk of producing many other types of cells.
And the study is unique, because the team managed to reprogram the skin cells to become a particular type of brain cell instead of a range of brain cells.
Writing in the journal Neuron, researchers from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis (WUSTL), MO, report how they used a particular combination of microRNAs and transcription factors to reprogram the skin cells into a particular type of brain cell known as medium spiny neurons.
