World patent application on our invention for forming a functional network of human neuronal and glial cells
We are happy to announce the publication of our patent as a joint effort of Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research (IPF) and German Center for Neurodegenerative Disease (DZNE). The invention relates to a method for forming a functional network of human neuronal and glial cells, wherein the cells are introduced into a synthetic hydrogel system …
5th Zebrafish Principal Investigator meeting
We will present our research in 5th European Zebrafish Principal Investigator Meeting (EZPM) in Trento, Italy between March 20-23, 2018. We will also chair the "Stem Cell Plasticity" workshop. The focus of the workshop will be to discuss how zebrafish stem cells maintain and manifest their capacity for plasticity in various tissues. There will be five …

Our new review on pathology-induced regenerative molecular programs of zebrafish brain is out!
We have published a review article on the current knowledge about the damage-induced molecular programs that underlie the regenerative ability in zebrafish brain in Current Pathobiology Reports. The ability to regenerate lost neurons is one of the aims of designing regenerative therapies in humans. Zebrafish, with its extensive regenerative ability and superb aptitude for …
We generated a novel method for reconstructing neuronal networks of human brain and modeling Alzheimer’s disease in 3D.
We are glad to announce our first ever pre-print server publication that documents an innovative 3D system allowing human neural stem cells to produce our brain's various neuronal types and to model Alzheimer's disease with major pathological outcomes replicated outside the brain in a 3D space. With this model, we can study the effects of …
