Attachment culture of cortical organoids at the microwell air-liquid interface.

Overview
abstract
The cortical organoid is an efficient model for studying human brain neurodevelopment and neurological disease. However, its three-dimensional structure limits real-time observation of internal physiological changes. Here, we present a protocol for an air-liquid interface attachment culture for cortical organoids. We describe steps for transplanting cortical organoid slices and generating the air-liquid interface. We then detail calcium imaging on organoid external neural networks and immunohistochemical staining on confocal plates.
