Understanding how a healthy brain works can provide insight into how it fails, too. Scientists hope that studying organoids derived from humans with neurodevelopmental disorders — particularly ...

Northwestern University scientists have developed the most advanced organoid model for human spinal cord injury to date. In a new study, the research team used lab-grown human spinal cord ...

Researchers have grown tumor organoids -- three-dimensional miniature tumors in the laboratory -- that mimic the different structures and characteristics of pancreatic cancer. The scientists ...

Research on conditions like autism, schizophrenia and even brain cancer increasingly relies on clusters of human cells called brain organoids. These pea-size bits of neural tissue model aspects of ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. In 2017, Ashley Moffett, a reproductive immunologist, walked to the pharmacy near her laboratory at the University of Cambridge, ...

In a petri dish at Northwestern University, researchers grow organoids modeled on the human spinal cord: simplified, lab-made ...

“You’re on a chemotherapeutic and your oncologist may say that your dosage is X, while a nephrologist is telling you that the proximal tubules in your kidneys can’t handle it. You’re harming them.” ...

Megan Molteni reports on discoveries from the frontiers of genomic medicine, neuroscience, and reproductive tech. She joined STAT in 2021 after covering health and science at WIRED. You can reach ...

Can "dancing molecules" repair spinal cord injuries? A new lab model using human organoids shows promising results, reducing scars and regrowing nerve fibers.

This infographic summarizes key aspects of the proposed methodology for producing liver organoids. The liver organoids developed in this study aid in improving hemophilia A by secreting the essential ...
