BrainXell is a biotechnology research company focused on producing high-purity human neurons and glia derived from induced pluripotent stem cells to support neuroscience research and drug discovery. It partners with large and small biotech and pharmaceutical organizations to develop products, services, and applications using its proprietary methods to guide stem cells into specialized neurons. The company conducts its research and production primarily in Madison, Wisconsin, while BrainXell Therapeutics operates in San Diego, California, with a mandate to translate discoveries into therapies for neurological disorders.

The firm traces its origins to Dr. Su-Chun Zhang and the University of Wisconsin–Madison’s Discovery to Product program, reflecting an academic-industry collaboration. Its lead program, BXT-110, is advancing toward an IND for Parkinson's disease, and a second program targeting spinal cord injury is in early development. In 2025, BrainXell participated in the Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting, presenting iPSC-derived neuron research and in vivo data related to BXT-110.
