Our Braingeneers are going to the Society for Neuroscience meeting next week. Come learn about our research on brain organoids! #SFN #Neuroscience2022 #SFN2022 braingeneers.ucsc.edu


Its a busy day at #SfN2022 ! 3 posters by UC Santa Cruz Braingeneers today! First up: Mohammed Mostajo-Radji presents "Fate plasticity of interneuron specification" from 8 AM-12 PM -- 🧫Poster A10🥼 #SfN22 UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute


Check out the Braingeneers latest research investigating temporal dynamics of neuronal assemblies with human brain organoids. #SFN2022


Coming up at #SfN2022 ! Braingeneer Tal Sharf presents "Internally generated sequential firing patterns in human brain organoids" 🧫Drop by Poster C17 between 1-2 PM⚡️ #SfN22 UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute Baskin Engineering at UCSC

Happening now at #SfN2022 ! Braingeneers Jess Sevetson, PhD & Claudia Paz Flores present "High-density recordings for long-term electrophysiology in developing brain organoids with automated fluidics platform integration. 🧫Drop by Poster C26 between 3-4 PM🧠 #SfN22 UC Santa Cruz Genomics Institute

🧠 Our Braingeneers are growing live models of brain tissue (cerebral organoids) to study brain function. Keeping these organoids alive is always a challenge, but they've developed a unique method to automate growth: news.ucsc.edu/2022/11/remote…

With a new system to grow brain tissue organoids via automated, remote-controlled microfluidics, #BaskinEngineering Braingeneers are increasing the accuracy and reproducibility of organoid research for better understanding of brain development and disease news.ucsc.edu/2022/11/remote…


“High-density recordings for long-term electrophysiology in developing brain organoids with automated fluidics platform integration.” Jess Sevetson, PhD of the wonderfully named Braingeneers lab UC Santa Cruz, detailed their open-source reproducible microfluidic platform for feeding #organoids


If you missed Braingeneer Jess Sevetson, PhD's poster at SfN, here's a great chance to learn more about it (and several other cutting-edge projects!)

Happy #WorldOrganoidResearchDay ! IBSC_UCSC CIRM Fellow & Braingeneers member @brain_trader is helping build better #BrainOrganoid models to study brain function, neurological differences, and brain cancers. Read more about organoids & the Braingeneers: ucscgenomics.sites.ucsc.edu/2023/03/22/wor…


#WorldOrganoidResesarchDay 🧠 This photo is of a brain organoid grown by our Braingeneers group. The presence of FEZF2, PAX6, and SOX2 genes indicates the development of the cortical area of the brain in the organoid. Learn more about organoids: ucscgenomics.sites.ucsc.edu/2023/03/22/wor…


Happy #WorldOrganoidResearchDay 🎉 IBSC_UCSC IRACDA Fellow & Braingeneers member Jess Sevetson, PhD is using #BrainOrganoids to uncover how genetic changes enhanced the human brain's computing capacity during primate evolution 🙉 Learn about the Braingeneers: braingeneers.ucsc.edu
