Treating neurological and cardiac disorders remains challenging. One major reason for this is a relative scarcity in disease models available to researchers. The advent of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) gave scientists access to a potentially unlimited supply of neural and cardiac cells for disease research. However, the question remains how closely do these iPSC-derived disease models mimic in vivo pathology?

In this webinar, brought to you by FUJIFILM Biosciences, Jesús Tintos-Hernandez, Setsu Endoh-Yamagami, and Amaris Castañon discuss the latest advances and innovations in neuroscience and heart disease modeling. 

Topics to be covered

  • How disease modeling is helping in neuroscience research and drug development
  • Technical advancements in neuroscience and heart disease modeling
  • Various perspectives on aging, 2D and 3D cultures, and animal versus human models
