Organoids serve as an excellent model for investigating the underlying principles of development. However, our current understanding of how cells self-organise into these…
Self-organization of cells into organ communities
We study how single cells self-organize as a community to generate an organ, using the pancreas as a model.
To do so, we developed 3D in vitro…
