Bridging the gap in ALS research with human cell models

Explore how disease-relevant cellular models support more predictive neurodegenerative research.

Brought to you bySartorius

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) involves complex, multicellular dysfunction extending beyond motor neuron degeneration. Emerging research highlights the role of immune cells, particularly microglia, in shaping disease progression. Human stem cell–derived models offer a physiologically relevant system to investigate these interactions and uncover measurable disease phenotypes.
