Four Hacks for Culturing Neurons
Human iPSC-derived excitatory neurons provide helpful physiologically relevant cell models to investigate neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative disorders, although achieving healthy neuronal cultures can be challenging.
Dr Kaiser Karim is a glutamatergic neuron expert at bit.bio. In his career has studied the genomic mechanisms governing the reprogramming of human iPSCs into glutamatergic neurons.
