Browsing: Organoids
Organoids are three-dimensional, miniature, and simplified versions of organs grown in vitro from stem cells. They replicate many of the structural and functional characteristics of real organs, making them powerful tools for studying human development, disease, and drug response. Organoids have been developed for a variety of tissues, including the brain, liver, intestines, and kidneys. Their ability to mimic the complex architecture and functions of organs provides researchers with more accurate models for understanding diseases and testing potential treatments, moving closer to personalized medicine and reducing the need for animal testing.
