Berlin: EU funding for automation of organoid culture Featured

In order to optimize the production of 3D cell culture systems such as organoids from patient stem cells,  scientists at the Max Delbrück Center want to automate this process. The goal is to be able to offer an automated, reliable process for high-throughput experiments that is also attractive to the industry.


For their proof-of-concept study, the research team, led by Dr. Mina Gouti, is collaborating with Dr. Sebastian Diecke, who heads already a pluripotent stem cell technology platform.

The European Research Council (ERC) is funding the automation study with €150,000.
