Development of new drugs for neurological diseases has long been hampered by the lack of predictive humanized models, and many treatments that have looked promising in animal studies have thus failed in subsequent human clinical trials. To mitigate this challenge, this new collaboration will use the MNI’s renowned hiPSC platform and bring together experts from MNI’s neurological and CDRD’s drug screening and assay development teams to develop the next generation of disease-specific research models using patient-derived hiPSCs. The partnership will help significantly reduce research timelines and costs, making it possible to develop future hiPSC models for neurological diseases with smaller patient populations.
