    Description

    Neural iPSC unit (NIPS) is a part of the Biomedicum Stem Cell Center (BSCC) core facility in the Genome Editing, Function and Stem Cell (GoEditStem) platform of Helsinki Institute of Life Science (HiLIFE).

    Neural iPSC unit (NIPS) has been recently established in co-operation with Jari Koistinaho's lab
    Opens in a new tab at the Neuroscience Center
    Opens in a new tab (Biomedicum 1, 2nd floor, Meilahti Campus) as a part of the Biomedicum Stem Cell Center (BSCC)
    Opens in a new tab core facility and Understanding Human Brain (UHBRAIN) profiling area of the University of Helsinki. We provide brain cell differentiation services using state-of-the art methods in our well-equipped cell culture laboratory. Co-cultures of our iPSC-derived neurons and astrocytes produce functional neuronal networks that develop synchronized electric activity. We also provide consultation and training services.
