10 years of breakthroughs in organoid technology: from adult stem cell discovery to changing patients lives

Date: Wednesday 6 September 2023

Time: 07:00 [PDT] 10:00 [EDT] 15:00 [BST]

In this webinar Rob Vries, CEO of HUB Organoids (Utrecht, The Netherlands) will review the history of organoid technology, from the initial organoid models derived from of adult stem cells of the intestine, to the most recent technological advances that have facilitated the development of reproducible and robust organoids. These developments have opened up these models to applications such as drug screening, personalized medicine and tissue regeneration.

What will you learn?

How the discovery of LGR5+ stem cells in the intestine led to the development of the first mini gut in a dish
How stem-cell research has resulted in a variety of biobanks from both normal and disease tissue
How the standardization of patient derived organoid cultures has enabled higher-throughput drug-screening studies
How patients are currently being treated based on results from organoid testing

Who may this interest?

Researchers interested in organoid technology
Scientists developing new therapeutic agents, curious about the development and translatability of organoids
Drug developers interested in the scale-up and high throughput potential of organoids for screening
