Rapid Neuronal Differentiation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Measuring Network Activity on Micro-electrode Arrays

We modify and implement a previously published protocol describing the rapid, reproducible, and efficient differentiation of human induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (hiPSCs) into excitatory cortical neurons¹². Specifically, our modification allows for control of neuronal cell density and use on micro-electrode arrays to measure electrophysiological properties at the network level.
