Researchers Develop ‘Mini-Brain’ Model That Could Help Identify Targets for MS Treatment
Cerebral organoids shed light on cells that generate the myelin cells that protect the axons of neuron. In multiple sclerosis, inflammatory processes attack the myelin of neurons in the brain and spinal cord.

With our novel mini-brain models, we’re taking a critical step toward understanding how a patient’s genetic background influences MS pathogenesis – and to ultimately discovering the origin of MS. We look forward to applying this novel technology to upcoming research and one day, toward a long-awaited cure for MS patients.
