This webinar will be hosted live and readily available on-demandMonday, August 28, 2023 11:00 AM Eastern Time Human-derived organoids– 3D mini-organs cultured in vitro– have far reaching applications in tissue regeneration, disease modeling, accuracy medication, and drug discovery. Researchers make use of a variety of strategies and technologies to develop, preserve, and assay different organoids, the toughness and reproducibility of which form the foundation of safe and efficient pre-clinical and scientific applications.In this Technique Talk, Dosh Whye will talk about how researchers use pluripotent stem cells to construct 3D designs of neural development.Learning ObjectivesEmbryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cellsCulture systems for pluripotent stem cells 2D and 3D techniques for neural derivation and neuronal differentiationMethods for identifying neural identity Functional assays to study disease-related phenotypes Dosh Whye, MAAssistant DirectorCell Development, Human Neuron CoreBoston Childrens HospitalHarvard Medical SchoolSponsored by
