Look back: the first In-vitro 2D and 3D Neuronal Networks Summit (MaxWell Biosystems User Meeting) 

On April 22nd and 23rd, we hosted the first In-vitro 2D and 3D neuronal Networks Summit (MaxWell Biosystems User Meeting) and were very excited about the tremendously successful outcome, with over 700 registrants from 49 countries!   First Day: Scientific Talks and Discussions Open for All The first day of the meeting was open to everybody. We had very interesting talks from seven invited speakers, who spoke about their work involving iPSC-derived neurons, brain organoids, and also high-density microelectrode array (HD-MEA)…

HD-MEAs play a role in the functional characterization of human iPSC-derived dopaminergic neurons

Maria Sundberg from the Boston Children’s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and colleagues, recently reported in Nature Communications a study on the reciprocal copy number variations (CNVs) of 16p11.2 gene region, associated with a wide spectrum of neuropsychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders. For the functional analysis of the developing iPSC-derived dopaminergic (DA) neuron network, complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS)-based high-density microelectrode arrays (HD-MEAs), MaxOne System by MaxWell Biosystems was extensively used. 16p.11.2 Reciprocal copy number variations (CNVs) in neuropsychiatric disorders 16p.11.2 CNVs have been implicated in…

MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads | 3D Neural-Interfaces

  It is already time for the last MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads edition of the first quarter of 2021. Last month we focused on the topic of  Simulation of extracellular neuronal spiking activity. In this edition we will focus on 3D Neural-Interfaces, and as always we selected five papers that we think are worth reading. Enjoy! Three-dimensional, multifunctional neural interfaces for cortical spheroids and engineered assembloids. by Park, Y., Franz, C. K., Ryu, H., Luan, H., Cotton, K. Y., Kim, J. U.,…

MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads | Simulation of Extracellular Neuronal Spiking Activity

Welcome to our MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads blog. As mentioned in our previous edition, we will, this year again, share with you 12 new monthly must-reads! Each month we will choose a theme and select five papers that we think are worth reading. Last month we focused on the topic of Functional Connectivity in Neuronal Networks. For our second edition, we are featuring the Simulation of extracellular neuronal spiking activity. High-density microelectrode array (HD-MEA) devices feature hundreds to thousands of electrodes per…

MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads | Functional Connectivity in Neuronal Networks

Welcome to our MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads blog. A new year also means new publications to highlight and new topics to discover. This year as well, for our monthly must-reads, we will choose a theme per month and select five papers that we think are worth reading. Last year we covered a range of topics from Human iPSC-Derived Neurons to a special COVID-19 edition called Neurons and Viruses. In our first edition of 2021, we have decided to focus on Functional Connectivity…
