BioStock: Fluicell makes its mark in neuroscience field

Neurodegenerative diseases are a rapidly growing concern with an increasingly aging population. Decades of research have made it possible to generate neuronal cell cultures in a lab to study their behaviour in disease or injury models or for drug testing. However, these man-made cells lack the complexity of neural tissue to appropriately replicate natural behaviour inside the human body. Gel-free bioprinting has the capacity to address this issue, and Biopixar, Fluicell’s 3-D bioprinter, has shown that direct printing of neurons is possible, which is an important step to create better research models and applications in precision medicine.
