About Connect

To effectively grasp the complexity of neurodegenerative disorders, CONNECT (Connecting neural networks: Nervous-system-on-Chip Technology) will develop and put the next level in vitro model systems for the nervous system firmly on the map. The successful completion of this high risk-high gain project will enable for the first time to study a simple nervous system, instead of isolated tissues, delivering a viable paradigm for future technology to study connectivity in organ system
