Grateful to have been part of this work from the Pasca Lab, now published in Nature Biomedical Engineering, on scalable brain organoid production for screening. An early step in a fast-evolving field — and I’m eager to see how things continue to unfold.

This week we welcome on campus 2025 class of students for our hands-on Stanford Brain Organogenesis course.
With students joining from across the globe, this is our most international class yet—diving into cutting-edge neural #organoid and #assembloid methods, ready to bring them back to their labs.

Deadline approaching fast for our free, hands-on workshop on human stem cell models.
This year with a focus on assays & #assembloids for disease modeling.
Join us on the beautiful Stanford campus
Course organized by the amazing Rebecca Levy and @merveavar.bsky.social!
