Webinar details
In this webinar, our expert speakers explore how human iPSC-derived CNS models are used to study neuroinflammation across 2D and 3D systems, highlighting microglia-driven responses, tri-culture integration, and functional readouts in bioprinted 3D environments.

Key learnings points
- How 2D human microglia models are characterised using functional readouts, imaging and single-cell analysis
- What changes when transitioning from 2D to 3D CNS models
- How microglia integrate into 3D tri-culture systems
- How functional assays (mitochondrial activity, cytokine release) can be applied in 3D model systems
- What 3D human CNS systems can reveal about neuroinflammatory responses
