Accelerating Organoid Adoption Set to Transform Cancer Drugs
When asked about the biggest obstacles preventing organoids from reaching their full potential, Alif Saleh, CEO of 28bio, emphasizes that adoption, not technology, is the primary hurdle, particularly in drug discovery, where a staggering 95% failure rate is accepted as the norm.
The Clumps of Brain Cells That Can Play Pac-Man
What they mean for medicine and perhaps the future of AI data centers.
FDA’s Shift From Animal Testing Opens Doors for Organoid Makers
The idea that a mouse brain or a rat brain or any other animal brain can predict how a human brain would react to a particular drug—it's not credible. Yet up until this point, this has been the only solution that pharma has had available to them.

Spotlights

Modeling Myelination and Therapeutic Response in Demyelinating Disorders
CNS-3D and PNS-3D organoids support authentic myelin formation and enable high-throughput measurement of myelination for therapeutic screening.
Organoid Intelligence Offers New Evidence of Learning-related Activity in Human Neural Tissue
Human-derived neural networks can exhibit measurable markers of learning and memory processes.
Organoid Neurotoxicity Testing Embraced by FDA and NIH
Scientists and regulators have long acknowledged the weaknesses in traditional methods used to identify drugs that may harm the central nervous system.
