organoids

Technique developed at Human Genome and Stem Cell Research Center, funded by FAPESP and hosted by the University of São Paulo, produced hepatic tissue in the laboratory in only 90 days and could become an alternative to organ transplantation in future

Picking the best microplate for growing organoids often includes some personal preference

Research group's work will usher in a new era in the study of diseases of the urinary system

Nine-month-old brains-in-a-dish and the brains of premature newborn babies generate similar electrical patterns, as captured by electroencephalogram (EEG)—the first time such brain activity has been achieved in a cell-based laboratory model

Existing approaches to testing potential treatments through drug screening do not take account of the fact that the genetic errors that cause kidney diseases vary from patient to patient

Although the organoids aren't actually "thinking," the researchers' new tool--which detects neural activity using organoids--could provide a method for understanding human brain function

When it comes to modeling the early developmental processes of the human embryo, things become complicated

Organoids allow researchers to test both novel and existing therapies in the lab, without burdening patients

Researchers find a simple way to prevent wayward cells from developing
