The gut’s complex composition and function can make it difficult to study in vitro. However, researchers now grow 3D intestinal organoids—miniature guts—to evaluate gut development and disorders in cell culture. In this webinar brought to you by The Scientist, Arthur Beyder and Melanie Maya Kaelberer will explore how scientists use intestinal organoids to explore the cellular, molecular, and physiological processes that underly the healthy and diseased digestive system.
