Project Details
Description
With limited resources to directly study and advance our understanding of human neural development, thisproposal will establish models of 4 key stages. Employing innovative, interdisciplinary approaches, biomaterialswill be fabricated to provide structural and chemical support for human stem cells during: (i) neural induction, (ii)specification into neuronal progenitor subpopulations, (iii) neuronal maturation and integration into complex neuralnetworks as well as, (iv) the organisation of neurons into larger 3-dimensional brain structures, namely folding ofthe human cortex. Further, biomaterials developed here have commercialisation potential, targeted atstandardizing the culturing of human stem cells to defined neural populations.
