This technology includes the NeurEx® mobile application, a groundbreaking tool designed for neurologists to conduct and document neurological examinations efficiently. Deployed on iPads, it integrates with a secure, cloud-based database, automating the computation of four key disability scales used in neuroimmunology. The app's robust design enables precise mapping of neurological deficits, blending spatial distribution with quantitative assessments.

This technology includes an innovative method for differentiating astrocytes from neural stem cells (NSCs). The process involves using Life Technologies StemPro embryonic stem cell serum-free medium to initially guide NSCs towards a neuronal lineage. Over a period of 28-35 days, as the cells are continually passaged, neurons gradually die off, leading to the proliferation of astrocytes. By the end of this differentiation protocol, approximately 70% of the cells exhibit markers characteristic of mature astrocytes, specifically GFAP.
