Learn how to produce and characterize human neurons derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (IPSCs). After reviewing Module 2, participants at all career stages should be able to: - Describe techniques and methods used to define human neurons derived from human iPS cells. - Summarize the rationale of directed neuronal differentiation from human pluripotent stem cells. - Describe how to apply the use of small molecules/morphogens to generate major neuron types. - Introduce step-wise quality control criteria to assure the generation of the desired neuron type and troubleshoot the differentiations. - Explain the principles for direct lineage conversion. - Identify the key techniques used to directly generate human neurons from iPS cells by transiently expressing transcription factors. - Describe how to establish long-term culture for disease modeling.

Learn basic approaches for generating, reprogramming, and genetically screening induced pluripotent stem cell-derived (iPSC) neurons and glia. After reviewing Module 1, participants at all career stages should be able to: - Explain the basics of reprogramming. - Describe how to make a study design considering possible limitations and proper number of samples. - Summarize how to perform a reprogramming experiment. - Summarize how to validate and establish iPSC lines. - Outline genome editing techniques and how to proceed to design and perform an experiment. - Explain CRISPR-based approaches to probe gene function in iPSC-derived neurons and glia. - Describe different types of large-scale genetic screens in iPSC-derived neurons and glia.
