AMSBIO has written an informative technical article to enable neuroscience researchers to learn more about a new method to control and direct differentiation of physiologically relevant neural cell types using stem cell qualified reagents.

Stem cells have revolutionized our approaches to and understanding of neuroscience. The key to research success is the ability to control and direct differentiation into physiologically relevant neural cell types.

Controlling cell differentiation in a predictable way is a major challenge in stem cell research. The new method described within the article shows how to differentiate adult neural stem cells and pluripotent ES cells using 3D extracellular matrices and reagents from AMSBIO, enabling researchers to gain a valuable insight into the stem cells they are studying.
