Brain #organoids have huge potential for 💊 testing drugs, 🧬 researching genetics and 🧠 studying brain development.
New research from @ncndgroup.bsky.social @adampavlinek.bsky.social scales up experiments and reduces variability.

🎥 This month: Kobe Outtier (DC10)
She grows mini retinas from patient cells—also known as retinal organoids—to study CRX-related inherited retinal diseases.

Good lesson here. #Organoids and organotypic microtissues are fabulous for particular questions, but probably will always need complementary modelling and human studies. A good modeller knows the limitations and works within those.
Brilliant talk by my colleague Dr Dongli Liu from UNSW at ANZGOG (Australia New Zealand Gynaecological Oncology Group) on the Gold Coast this week. All about development of organoids from patients with ovarian and endometrial cancer & their value in drug testing. #organoids #tumoroids #ANZGOGASM2026

Best talk award for our presentation on #SYS #organoids and neuronal models at the Neuro&Rare #ciber meeting
WNV can cause serious brain infections. A new study created human cerebral organoids to better understand the disease. Researchers showed that the WNV infects neurons and astrocytes, causing cell damage. Read further about it 👉 nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨 #NAMs update: #FDA new draft guidance
A strong regulatory signal accelerating the adoption of human-relevant models like #organoids and #zebrafish in drug development.
⚙️ At Bionomous, we build automated tools to support this transition at scale 👉 zurl.co/RU6Gi
Researchers including Dr. Songying Zhang present a microfluidic biofabrication strategy to engineer vascularized endometrial micro-#organoids that recapitulate the cellular complexity and function of native tissue. 🧫

A quote in white on a blue background with a white and purple blurred sinusoidal pattern to the right reads: “You can make organoids of any organ and disease you want, from a patient’s own cells, and you can make as many as you need ... It’s so much more efficient for drug trials and disease modeling. That’s why there’s such excitement around this technology.” Above the quote to the left is a quote symbol in white within a circular outline in white. Below the quote is text in white that says: “Clive Svendsen, PhD Professor, Cedars-Sinai” Below is a white line and text in yellow that states: “Article by Christian Bordal | cedars-sinai.org”
Nice feature on how Cedars-Sinai Investigators are using #organoids to study pediatric tumorigenesis and treatments, cardiovascular disease and heart development, neurodegenerative diseases, and more.
Exciting new data to go with our new products with our partners @StemCultures, LLC.

Mouse forebrain #organoids self-organize into small-world neural networks. Findings demonstrate how cellular composition influences neural circuit self-organization, establishing mouse forebrain organoids as models of cortical network assembly. https://ow.ly/oFKW50YqfSq

Do organoids need to look like organs to model disease?
A new JIMD review argues that function may matter more than anatomy when studying inherited metabolic diseases.
Focus on the pathway - not the organ.

🔥Testicular Niche from Stem Cells
Mouse pluripotent #stemcells recreate the testicular niche in vitro, producing functional sperm. Testicular #organoids mimic natural sex-determination pathways. Transplantation into infertile mice produces healthy, fertile offspring.
The #BonnOrganoidSymposium 2026 with a fantastic talk by @microorganolab.bsky.social on the diverse applications of #organs-on-chip and #organoids
In this new BiorXiv preprint, we first generated #organoids containing neuromodulatory neuronal populations, including raphe nuclei-like neurons that produce and secrete serotonin, and then integrated them with cortical organoids.
Drug toxicity in organoids: Caspase-Glo 3/7 3D Assay enables reproducible apoptosis detection in single organoids.
More physiologically relevant than 2D cultures for compound screening, safety evaluation, and patient-derived models.
