An Alternative Outcome to Sensory Neurons….

The Dottori laboratory not only cultures sensory neurons but also cortical neurons, that provide models for Alzheimers and Dementia research. The images below show 4 crucial stages in the process when culturing stem cells to generate cortical neurons:

The first stage on the production of cortical neurons

The beginning of this process involves the isolation of pluripotent  stem cells and their cultivation in the laboratory incubator.

These cells during the neural induction stage
