Generation, purification and transplantation of photoreceptors derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells.

<h4>Background</h4>Inherited and acquired retinal degenerations are frequent causes of visual impairment and photoreceptor cell replacement therapy may restore visual function to these individuals. To provide a source of new retinal neurons for cell based therapies, we developed methods...
