Wang Lab Explores Human Organoids Using Biomaterials and Nanotechnology for Drug Discovery & Development
A technology feature in @Nature explains how organoids, assembloids and a growing toolkit of bioengineering tricks are helping scientists stitch together models of the developing human brain, pushing the limits of realism and control. go.nature.com/4mi7zQZ

.@NIHDirector_Jay and Dr. @NKleinstreuer talk about NIH’s shift toward human-focused research and how NIH will no longer issue NOFOs exclusively for animal models. Watch the latest episode of The Director’s Desk to hear more: youtube.com/watch?v=iSvk6i…
The global stem cell community remembers the life & contributions of James Till, who passed away on May 18 at the age of 94. Alongside the late Ernest McCulloch, Dr. Till conducted pioneering research in the 1960s that proved the existence of stem cells. isscr.org/isscr-news/iss…
🔬 We're at a pivotal moment in our Parkinson's research! 🧠 Our understanding of alpha-synuclein is progressing, opening new possibilities for therapies. Proud of our dedicated scientists driving this change! 🌟 roche.com/stories/redefi… #Neuroscience #ParkinsonsResearch
Included in this interview is that soon: all scientific papers that included tax dollars to complete the work will be accessible to the public at ZERO COST. This will completely change the journal model. Buckle up!

NIH to prioritize human-based research technologies, such as Organoids, tissue chips, and other in vitro systems that allow scientists to model human disease and capture human variability and patient-specific characteristics | National Institutes of Health nih.gov/news-events/ne…
Today, NIH announced a new initiative to expand innovative, human-based science while reducing the use of animals in research. This aligns with @US_FDA’s initiative to reduce testing in animals. bit.ly/4jYd4T2
FDA Announces Plan to Phase Out Animal Testing Requirement for Monoclonal Antibodies and Other Drugs | FDA fda.gov/news-events/pr…
The FDA will promote the use of lab-grown human “organoids” and organ-on-a-chip systems that mimic human organs – such as liver, heart, and immune organs – to test drug safety.
Today, the FDA is taking a groundbreaking step to advance public health by replacing animal testing in the development of monoclonal antibody therapies and other drugs with more effective, human-relevant methods. fda.gov/news-events/pr…
🆕 Today in @Nature! Scientists, with Dr. Toshiro Sato, demonstrate that the combined activation of Wnt and STAT3 signaling enables long-term self-renewal of human adult #hepatocyte #organoids. go.nature.com/4lDuZ36
