Medium-throughput computer aided micro-island method to assay embryonic dopaminergic neuron cultures in vitro

▶ Cost and time effective assessment of dopaminergic effects of neurotrophic factors and small molecules. ▶ Improved statistical power. ▶ Enables 10 data points per E13,5 embryo. ▶ Allows comparative analysis of dopaminergic neurons from single, e.g. KO embryo. ▶ Can be adapted for analyzing other low abundance cell types.
