Brain-on-a-chip technology (microcontact printing)

 

In a previous EU project "BrainMatTrain" we established the use of collagen hydrogels on brain slices and established microcontact printing (µCP) on slices. We further developed the printing of collagen lanes and spots at the µm range. Our model offers 3 general strategies: 1 Study outgrowth along the lanes derived from mouse brain slices and effects in the slice. 2 Study cells in the slice using live cell imaging.

3 Find new human biomarkers with plasma printed lanes.
