It was so fun to see these talented scientists work hard to master iPSC/organoid techniques in record time! We are so proud of our first workshop cohort and can't wait to see how they incorporate organoids into their science. Sincerest thank you from all of us. 🫶

Emory Brain Organoid Workshop Day 4: We learned about genome engineering from @NURIeSMITH and then imaged organoid IHC slides. Check out this beautiful rosette stain by @MarcusHLee1!

On Day 3 of the workshop we learned about iPSC/organoid QC, assembloids, transcriptomics and genomics! In the lab, we dislodged D0 embryoid bodies and immunopanned for neurons and astrocytes from D200 cortical organoids!

Day 2 of the Emory Brain Organoid Hub workshop was super exciting--participants aggregated iPSCs to form embryoid bodies, recorded MEA experiments, and stained their first neuroepithelial rosettes!!! Today we're immunopanning and blowing out the embryoid bodies.

We have a question for our organoid community: What do you consider a biological replicate in your experiments? A) Organoids from different hiPSC lines B) Organoids from the same hiPSC lines and the same batch C) Organoids from the same line but different batches D) Other

Congrats to the Birey Lab! We're all super excited to see the impactful work that will come from this project.
We are excited to receive the NIH Stephen I. Katz ESI RO1 Grant! With its support, we will use merge novel genomic & imaging techonologies with organoid models to better understand developmental signaling underlying human neural specification at scale: reporter.nih.gov/project-det….

Is it really necessary to feed your cortical or subpallial organoids every weekend? The answer to that question, including our new "recipes & protocols" section, can be found on our website! brainorganoidhub.com/blog-po…

So happy to see this study out in @NatureNeuro! Fun collaboration with amazing @N_S_Thom
Glad to share our latest work in @NatureNeuro on cell diversity in the developing human spinal cord. Work led by @jimena_andersen—now leading her own lab @EmoryUniversity👏 & Nick Thom— now a PhD student @Harvard 👏 nature.com/articles/s41593-0… Open access: rdcu.be/daCIT

Hello from the Brain Organoid Hub @EmoryUniversity! We are a collection of labs (@Sloan_Lab @fikribirey @jimena_andersen ) interested in neurodevelopment and disease. We also have some new ideas about data sharing, and we are starting right now! tinyurl.com/y9xhtvcw

Most important, we want to hear your ideas! If there are culture conditions or patterning ideas you want to see directly tested, let us know and we’ll add them to the queue.

We envision a new model of sharing data. As the hub discovers new optimization strategies, we will share them immediately. Over time, we hope to publish large-scale studies as well, but for the betterment of the community, we will share our optimization findings in near real-time
