Unit for modeling neurodevelopmental disorders
The Unit for Modeling Neurodevelopmental Disorders, as an integral part of the STREAMLINE HUB, focuses on studying molecular mechanisms underlying NDDs. It was formed in 2024 as a result of activities carried out within the Horizon Europe Twinning project, STREAMLINE.
Activities:
- Generation and characterization of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)
- Neural differentiation
- In silico prediction of potential therapeutic target sites
- Developing 3D model systems
- Developing co-cultures
- Developing systems for testing compounds
- Examining the basic properties of cells (viability, proliferation, cell death, migration)
