Assembloids: The next dimension in #organoid research. 🧫
This review shines a light on a new step in organoid research: building “assembloids” by combining multiple organoids or specialized cells into one 3D system.

New insight into ovarian cancer: Tumor cells can recruit immune-suppressing cells through stress hormone signaling. Blocking that signal may help the immune system fight back. Discover how this finding could shape the future of ovarian cancer care. bit.ly/4fz22Ez

In a new study, #UTSW researchers found that ovarian cancer cells may suppress the body’s immune response by activating glucocorticoid receptors, helping tumors grow and evade detection — revealing potential new avenues for treatment.

Today, we stand with every woman and family impacted by ovarian cancer.
The fighters. The survivors. The ones we carry with us.
Awareness matters. So does action.

What drives @MariaChahrour? Understanding the “why” behind neurodevelopmental conditions like autism. Her lab studies genes and brain development to advance understanding and inform more personalized approaches to care. Learn more: bit.ly/4rJmYeu #UTSWMeetTheMinds

Geneticist J. Craig Venter, best known for his role in sequencing the human genome, has died aged 79.
He spoke to Nature in 2023 about AI, sequencing the ocean – and why he had no plans to stop working.

I am not afraid to say it: this is the most fundamental advance in our understanding of chromatin structure since the zig-zag fiber model.
Using single-H1 imaging and computational modeling, we show that most H1 behaves like a liquid inside chromatin domains, rather than binding stably to nucleosomes as in the textbook model.
Congrats, @MasaAShimazoe & all contributors! 🎉 2/2
