ISSCR 2021 Poster number 777
Authors: Daniel Millard, Denise Sullivan, Heather Hayes
Key Findings
>> The Maestro multiwell MEA platform enables functional characterization of neural cell culture activity with a flexible, easy to use benchtop system.
>> The Maestro MEA coupled with the ibidi two compartment insert provides a versatile assay platform for interrogating the connection between two neural networks in vitro . The cell types seeded on the MEA, timing of divider removal, and the configuration of the analysis offer flexibility to address a variety of research questions.
>> The synaptic assay framework presented here with the Maestro provides a new technique for studying neuro muscular junctions, developing neuroregenerative therapies aimed at restoring synaptic connections, and modeling neurodegenerative diseases characterized by aberrant or disjointed synaptic activity.
