Video: Imaging and analysis of a 3D airway organoid model

Organoids are three-dimensional (3D) multi-cellular, microtissues derived from stem cells that are designed to closely mimic the complex structure and functionality of human organs like the lung, liver or brain. Organoids are becoming increasingly important in the fields of cancer research, neurobiology, stem cell research, and drug discovery, since they allow for the enhanced modelling of human tissues and provide researchers greater insight into the mechanisms of human development and disease.
