Physiological normoxia and absence of EGF is required for the long-term propagation of anterior neural precursors from human pluripotent cells.

Widespread use of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) to study neuronal physiology and function is hindered by the ongoing need for specialist expertise in converting hPSCs to neural precursor cells (NPCs). Here, we describe a new methodology to generate cryo-preservable hPSC-derived NPCs that reta...
