Maryam Yassin from the University of Ottawa interviews Dr. Anna Jezierski and Dr. Alex MacKenzie. Dr. Jezierski is a research officer at the Department of Translational Biosciences in the Human Health Therapeutics Research Center at the National Research Council of Canada. She is also an adjunct professor for the Department of Biochemistry, Microbiology, and Immunology at the University of Ottawa. In this episode, Dr. Jezierski shares her research on modeling the human blood-brain barrier using induced pluripotent stem cells and the various applications of this model in studying therapeutics for diseases of the central nervous system. We're also joined by Dr. Alex Mackenzie, an attending pediatrician and senior scientist at the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO). He has served as the CEO and Scientific Director of CHEO Research Institute and is a cross-appointed member of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Ottawa. Dr. Mackenzie comments on how this model is revolutionizing drug development.
