Morphogen-guided neocortical organoids with anteroposterior areal identity dlvr.it/TVJwDK

Lab-grown brain models gain a sense of place news.uci.edu/2026/08/20/lab…
By introducing regional identity into these models, we can begin asking questions about development and disease that were difficult to address with conventional organoids. Proud to share our latest research! 🧠

I am happy to share our new paper in @CellStemCell, a short early pulse of “front” or “back” morphogens gives them anteroposterior identity - matching the regional map of the prenatal human cortex. We then used it to model Fragile X Syndrome. cell.com/cell-stem-cell…

Big congrats to the first author @YuanChenTsai1 & thanks to the whole team!!
