Researchers use cortical organoids to answer fundamental questions such as how the human brain can grow to its large size or how the human brain's long-range connections form. However, cortical ...

Human cortical organoids showing dividing cortical progenitors; progenitors (green) and layer six neurons (red); layer six and five cortical neurons; Athena unraveling DNA showing activating ...

Using human brain organoids as a model for brain development and disease research has been a game changer, providing Arlotta a novel view into brain pathologies that form in utero. Why are ...

such as early embryonic development or cortical neurons. As brain organoids replicate aspects of the brain's physiology, organoids hold the potential to reveal new insights about human tissue ...
