Human brain organoids are transforming the study of human brain development and neurodevelopmental disease. However, researchers still face key challenges in generating reproducible, region-specific models that more accurately reflect the physiological complexity of the human brain.
Join Creative Biolabs for an expert-led webinar featuring Giorgia Quadrato, PhD, Associate Professor in the Department of Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine at the University of Southern California and Director of the USC CIRM ASCEND Shared Resource Laboratory.
In this webinar, Dr. Quadrato will discuss how to improve the physiological relevance of human brain organoids through reproducible region-specific model generation, integration of bioengineering tools, and investigation of cell-type-specific mechanisms in developmental disease.
What You Will Learn
During this webinar, you will gain insights into:
- How reproducible region-specific brain organoids can be generated for human developmental and disease research
- How bioengineering tools can be integrated to increase the physiological relevance of brain organoids
- How human brain organoids can be used to investigate cell-type-specific mechanisms of developmental disease
- Why regional identity, cellular composition, and model reproducibility are critical for brain organoid applications
- How single-cell omics and lineage tracing approaches can support deeper mechanistic understanding
- How advanced 3D biology platforms can contribute to disease modeling, mechanistic discovery, and translational neuroscience research
