AMSBIO has published a case study that describes how a team of scientists, led by Dr. Roger Kamm from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), has developed a protocol for the fabrication of a 3D microfluidic neuromuscular platform that can be used to model Motor Neuron Diseases (MND’s).
For one of the most fatal types of MND, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), patients have a life expectancy of only 2 to 5 years. Despite widespread research efforts, effective treatments for MNDs remain elusive, largely due to the complex nature of these diseases and a lack of in-depth understanding…
