New microdevice developed by UMaine, Jackson Lab replicates embryonic spinal cord development

Researchers at the University of Maine MicroInstruments and Systems Laboratory (MISL), in collaboration with The Jackson Laboratory, have developed a new microfluidic tool that reproduces in the laboratory the same physiochemical environment that instructs embryonic stem cells to develop into organized tissue. Using this device, the research team has successfully cultured a portion of a read more New microdevice developed by UMaine, Jackson Lab replicates embryonic spinal cord development
