Precise CRISPR gene editing can correct the mutation that causes cystic fibrosis in mini-intestines
Prime editing, which edits DNA directly without cutting, restored healthy function in an organoid model of an intestine
Mini-brains are stressed out and not as reliable for disease modelling as scientists thought previously
Scientists compare cortical organoids to a developing human brain and spot key differences
Miniature brains the size of a pea are sending out brainwaves for the first time
Are they fetal brains in a jar? No. Should we still be excited and slightly concerned? Yes.
Scientists have got the recipe for growing miniature human brains just right
It's your favorite organ, self-assembling, ready to go
Futuristic organ-on-a-chip technology now seems more realistic than ever
Researchers have pioneered what may be the most accurate simulation of kidney function to-date
Why scientists are transplanting artificially grown “brains” into living brains
Scientists are making major strides in growing fully functional "mini brains" -- but what are the ethics of such science?
One great way to study brain diseases? 'Mini-brains' grown in dishes
The more complex tissue structure offers new possibilities
Scientists have learned to grow brain tissue to 100x (just add water)
A new technique to expand cells seems like science fiction: it lets researchers bypass laws of microscope physics
