Today, I’m thrilled have our lab’s work featured on the cover of @Nature In this article, we have developed a therapeutic approach for a severe condition called Timothy syndrome. This has been a long journey. It started with making hiPS cell-derived neurons in 2D cultures 15…
Excited to announce that applications are now open for the Asilomar meeting on The Ethical and Societal Implications of Neural Organoids, Assembloids, and Their Transplantation, taking place this November. As the technologies and applications of neural #organoids & #assembloids…
🧠✨ Save the date! SPONT 2026 — 4th Meeting on Spontaneous Activity in Brain Development 📅 October 19–22, 2026 📍 Atami, Japan 🇯🇵 Join us for cutting-edge science in a stunning coastal setting! #Neuroscience #BrainDevelopment #SPONT2026
Researchers led by Dr. @Sergiu_P_Pasca have developed a scalable cerebral cortical #organoid platform by screening biocompatible polymers that prevent the fusion of organoids cultured in suspension. 🧠 Read the @natBME study: go.nature.com/4eHTaKG

What a cohort!! Welcome to Bio-X
The Stanford Sapp Family CS Bio-X Undergraduate Summer Research Program has begun! Our 71 stellar undergrads are gearing up for a great summer of hands-on research! Learn more about the program on our website: biox.stanford.edu/highlight/anno…
Thrilled to introduce the newest PhD from the lab—Dr. Massimo Onesto—who successfully defended his thesis at @StanfordMed An exciting day for an exceptional scientist! Behind is the now-traditional “assembloids cake” we put together for the occasion. Congratulations,…
Our new paper is out in Science. We identified a subgroup of cholinergic neurons that mediate sensory modality-specific attention. They change their funcitonal properties within secs of behavioral context change. Congrats to Bin and the team! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Thank you! Wonderful to have you part of our 2025 class
