Engineering organoids for cancer research

Written by Tristan Free (Senior Editor) and Kristian Baycroft-Willmott (Senior Video Editor)

Advanced cell-based approaches, such as 3D cell culture and 2D stem-cell models, are increasingly used to create models of human diseases, such as cancer, allowing researchers to study disease development, progression and pathogenesis in a controlled environment. 

This video, part of our In Focus on organoids for cancer research, sponsored by Sartorius, introduces the two main types of organoids used in cancer research and the processes deployed to engineer them from different cell sources.
