WEBINAR: Revolutionizing Neurodegenerative Research with MaxWell Biosystems: Case Studies and Innovations for HD-MEA assays with Human iPSC-derived Neurons

September 24, 2025 | 11:00 AM CST

Scott Schachtele, Kadla Rosholm

Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived neurons are a powerful asset for in vitro modeling of neurodegenerative diseases. These cells have become increasingly accessible as commercial manufacturing at FUJIFILM Cellular Dynamics has established itself as the gold-standard and consistent supplier for biopharma and academic research. Electrophysiological assays such as manual patch clamp and microelectrode array [...]

WEBINAR: Neurodegeneration at the Cellular Level: Organelles in the Spotlight

March 25, 2025 | 11:00AM EST

Scott Schachtele, Silvia Cainarca

Organelles are specialized structures within cells that play a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis by regulating essential cellular processes such as energy production, protein synthesis, and waste removal. Dysfunction of these organelles can disrupt normal cellular functions, contributing to the development and progression of various diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and Amyotrophic [...]
