In a landmark study published in Cell Reports, scientists demonstrated that mouse cortical organoids (miniature, lab-grown ...

Lab-grown mini-brains learned to play video games using electrical signals, improving from 4.5% to 46% success in AI balance tests.

Imagine balancing a ruler vertically in the palm of your hand: you have to constantly pay attention to the angle of the ruler and make many small adjustments to make sure it doesn't fall over. It ...

insights from industryRosanna ZhangHead of Strategic InitiativesACROBiosystemsIn our latest interview, News-Medical speaks with Rosanna Zhang from ACROBiosystems about utilizing organoids for disease ...

A cluster of lab-grown human brain cells has apparently made the leap to successfully playing a very rudimentary video game ...

For over a decade, scientists have been growing organoids — small clusters of cells that mimic a particular organ — to serve as miniature biological models. Organoids of the brain have been used to ...

The cancer stem cell (CSC) paradigm is pivotal for understanding tumor progression, relapses, and therapeutic failure. Endowed with self-renewal, ...

Scientists have developed 3D mini-organs from human fetal brain tissue that self-organize in vitro. These lab-grown organoids open up a brand-new way of studying how the brain develops. They also ...

Allergy research has historically relied on traditional systems such as 2D cell cultures and mouse models to uncover mechanisms underlying allergic ...

Using little more than a few drops of blood, Indiana University scientists are applying advanced medical and engineering know-how to create simplified models of the brain for studying Alzheimer’s ...

Organoids are three-dimensional, miniaturized, and simplified versions of organs produced in vitro from stem cells or organ-specific progenitor cells. They recapitulate key structural and functional ...
