Organoid Meets Microelectrode Array (MEA) – Accelerating Drug Discovery and Development
In today’s fast paced research environment, drug testing, regulatory requirements, and alternative methods are at the forefront of neuroscience research. In this webinar, Dr. Sven Schönecker discusses the latest in 3D Mesh MEA’s, its ability for a more true-to-life system for studying organoids, and the versatility of the well-established MEA2100 system from Multi Channel Systems (MCS), an affiliate of Harvard Bioscience (HB).
Key Topics Include:
- Why organoids? – Advancements and alternative models to support the 3R’s (replace, reduce, refine) of animal models
- How did we get here? – Understand the challenges of 2D electrodes and the introduction of the 3D Mesh MEA
- Benefits of the platform – Electrophysiology simplified…simple integration and flexibility using a universal, well-established platform
- It’s all possible – Cell culture, slices, organoids, implantation, and beyond
Cardiac Research Using Microelectrode Array (MEA) Technology: Methodology Considerations and Best Practices to Optimize Recording
Join George Portugal, PhD for an overview of microelectrode array (MEA) technology used for cardiac research and some best practices for integrating this technique into your research.
Electrophysiology of Human Native Receptors in Neurological and Mental Disorders
Have a look at how Agenor Limon, PhD from the University of Texas Medical Branch and team have been looking at electrophysiological metrics of global synaptic E/I ratios in cortical brain regions of subjects that were affected by Alzheimer’s Disease and synaptic measurements in schizophrenia. How did automating processes with Roboocyte2 help in being more efficient and receiving better results?
Cellular Mechanisms Behind Alcohol Abuse and Binge Drinking Behavior
