Stanford scientists scale up mini-brain production using xanthan gum
由 AI 报道
Researchers at Stanford University have developed a method to grow thousands of identical brain organoids using xanthan gum, a common food additive, to prevent them from sticking together. This breakthrough, led by Sergiu Pasca and Sarah Heilshorn, enables large-scale testing for brain development and drug screening. The technique could advance studies on disorders like autism and schizophrenia.
