Congrats @bakhta_f for this amazing work that I have the pleasure to present today! Our new models of Primary Aldosteronism will be useful tools to better understand the disease and to test new therapeutic approaches in the future! @ENSAT_news @goharmonisation @AldolabZ

We are delighted to announce that it is now possible to assess the functional properties of neurons (IPSC-derived, primary, organoids) using HD-MEAs at the Electrophysiology Facility of UZH. Check out our summary of the services we can offer using this technique. The e-phac team

These kind of measurements allow us to follow network dynamics of #iPSC-derived #neurons, #cardiomyocytes, #brain #organoids, primary neuronal cultures and more. Furthermore, the high-density of electrodes provide information about action potential propagation along neurites

First data from our HD-MEA setup at #EPHAC! Watch how primary cortical neurons (kindly provided by @SchrattL) fire synchronized bursts of action potentials as soon as at DIV9. Get in touch if you are interested in using this system with your cells. @mxwbio #neuroscience

Automated patch clamp was originally developed for the pharmaceutical industry, but Thompson et al. repurpose it to investigate functional properties of several sodium channel variants associated with neurodevelopmental disorders bit.ly/47xrSCz #SCN2A #epilepsy

Why do hyperkalemic kidney transplant recipients on CNI show no aldosterone response -a question open since a 1983 Lancet paper-seems to have been mechanistically explained. Congrats, @DavidPentonR ! insight.jci.org/articles/vie… 1983 Lancet paper: thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Impressive throughput from the automated patchclamp @NanionTech presented at #LS2AM23 @LS2_ICMT @LS2Switzerland And there is one just next door in Zurich! Contact the electrophysiology facility @e_phac from University of Zurich for more information.
