Functional characterization of healthy and disease-related 3D neurospheres assembled using human iPSC-derived neurons and astrocytes

Neural 3D spheroids are a rapidly developing technology with great potential for understanding brain development and neuronal diseases.

They provide a more advanced and biologically relevant system for basic research and high-throughput drug discovery, including compound profiling and toxicity testing.

In this poster, we explore how this biological system of 3D neurospheres paired with a detailed analysis of calcium oscillations demonstrates a promising and informative tool for disease modeling and phenotypic functional evaluation that could be used for compound testing.
