This new model, however, simulates the development of all components of the central nervous system at once, something that prior models did not accomplish. The team of engineers and biologists aimed ...

Human stem cells coaxed to mimic the very early central nervous system Date: February 26, 2024 Source: University of Michigan Summary: The first stem cell culture method that produces a full model ...

The system is an example of a 3D human organoid—stem cell cultures that reflect key structural and functional properties of human organ systems but are partial or otherwise imperfect copies.

Pain on a Plate. The model — called a “sensory assembloid” — is made from human skin cells that scientists reprogrammed into stem cells (known as human-induced pluripotent stem cells).

Hesperos’ development of this peripheral nervous system myelination model aligns with the three goals of the FDA Modernization Act 2.0 which aims to reduce, replace and refine alternatives to ...
