    FLAG-ERA JTC2021 call The Human Brain Project

    What microfluidics can do for the JTC2021 ACTION

    Understanding human brain function can give profound insights into what makes us human and is indispensable for the development of new treatments of brain disorders. The current JTC2021 action supports projects in synergy with the FET Flagship Human Brain Project. The targeted Research and Innovation areas are:

    1. Studying genotype-phenotype relationships related to Brain Function
    2. Tackling Psychiatric Diseases
    3. Accelerating the diagnosis and the development of therapeutic approaches for rare diseases affecting the nervous system

    The main applications for microfluidics in this call are the development of novel therapeutic agents, the modelling of the humans nervous system and the identification of genetic mutations. The nervous system can be modelled in vitro by creating a brain or spinal cord organoid grown in a microfluidic device. A similar project funded under the JPND call is currently ongoing at Elvesys – project Orgtherapy. To sum up the general advantages of microfluidics:

    • Very precise control of the cell microenvironment during microfluidic cell culture, for example to study neurodegenerative diseases
    • Very precise dosage of pharmaceutically active compounds, in order to identify novel physoactive substances
    • Possibility to parallelize and automate the experiments – important for gene sequencing to identify novel mutations

    Cell culture experiments using microfluidics allow staining of different cellular compounds, monitoring of neurotransmitter uptake, co-culture of several cell types and a prolonged culture time with automated medium supply. Let us know if you have a question, you can also have a look at one of our Application Notes dedicated to microfluidic cell culture, e.g. on cell seeding, medium recirculation or cell staining.

    Let’s start new projects together!
