1. 11. Deep convolutional neural networks accurately predict the differentiation status of human induced pluripotent stem cells

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Katarzyna Marzec-Schmidt; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Rapid progress of AI technology in the life science area is observed in recent years. Convolutionalneural network (CNN) models were successfully applied for the localization and classification of cellson microscopic images. Induced pluripotent stem cells are one of the most important innovations inbiomedical research and are widely used, e.g. READ MORE

3. 12. Patterning of the neural tube: A 3D computational modelling approach

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Ariane Ernst; [2019]
   Keywords : gene regulatory networks; neural tube patterning; patterning of the neural tube; dopaminergic neurons; parkinson s disease; computational modelling; stem cell; GRN; Biology and Life Sciences; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s can be treated with stem-cell derived specialized neurons. In order to achieve precise directed neural differentiation in vitro we need to understand the gene regulatory mechanisms behind in vivo neural tube patterning. READ MORE

4. 13. Sex differences in neuronal differentiation of human stem cells

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

   Author : Olga Doszyn; [2019]
   Keywords : stem cells; neural stem cells; embryonic stem cells; sex differences; neuronal differentiation;

   Abstract : Sexual dimorphism has been long noted in human neurobiology, apparent most notably in sex-biased distribution of multiple neurological disorders or diseases, from autism spectrum disorder to Parkinson's disease. With the advances in molecular biology, genetics and epigenetics have come into focus as key players in sexually dimorphic neural development; and yet, many studies in the field of neuroscience overlook the importance of sex for the human brain.

5. 14. CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing in an in vitro model of a familial form of ALS

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

   Author : Fredrik Nilsson; [2018]
   Keywords : ALS; SOD1; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; superoxide dismutase; CRISPR Cas9; sgRNA; stem cell; lentivirus; qPCR; FOXG1; nestin; immunocytochemistry; differentiation; forebrain neural progenitor; Applied Biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by the degeneration and death of both upper and lower motor neurons for which there is no cure currently available. The degeneration of motor neurons leads to the inability to carry out voluntary movement and death usually occurs 3-5 years after disease onset by respiratory failure. READ MORE

6. 15. StemNet : A Temporally Trained Fully Convolutional Network for Segmentation of Muscular Stem Cells

   University essay from KTH/Teknisk informationsvetenskap

   Author : Martin Isaksson; [2017]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : In biomedical research, time-lapse microscopy is an important tool to be able tostudy processes which are too slow for humans to observe. This technique ispowerful since it gives information about how parameters of single cells changeover time. READ MORE
