MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads | iPSC as a tool for Disease Cell Modelling

Welcome to our first MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads blog of 2023! After 2022 – a year full of great scientific advances and discoveries – this month we would like to focus on induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSC) as a great tool for Disease Cell Modelling and for developing novel disease therapies. Development and advancement of patient derived iPSC technology has opened several avenues for scientists to generate relevant and reproducible human in vitro models. iPSC technology has also allowed researchers to…

MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads (January 2022)

Welcome to our MaxWell Monthly Must-Reads blog for 2022. 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 and in our first edition of 2022, we have decided to focus on Retinal Organoids. Human brain organoids assemble functionally integrated bilateral optic vesicles.…

Join the Conversation with Prof. Kenneth S. Kosik and Dr. Tal Sharf

Interview and Featured Publication Join the Conversation with Prof. Kenneth Kosik and Dr. Tal Sharf Recently, Dr. Tal Sharf, Prof. Kenneth S. Kosik and colleagues released a pre-print on their novel work entitled, “Human brain organoid networks”, currently under revision. Aiming to explore the physiological behavior of neuronal circuits within organoids, this work demonstrates that human brain organoids have self-organized neuronal assemblies of sufficient size, cellular orientation, and functional connectivity to co-activate and generate field potentials from their collective transmembrane…

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)…
