Symposium on cortical and spinal organoids – January 29th, 2024

The symposium on cerebral and spinal organoids is organised by the enSCORE platform of the Université Paris Cité (Labex « Who am I? », Institut Jacques Monod, Epigénétique et Destin Cellulaire) and the DIM C-BRAINS.

It focuses on innovative 3D models of nervous system development in organoids derived from human pluripotent stem cells. Over the course of a day, the aim is to highlight advances in three areas of research based on these models: modelling neurodevelopmental pathologies; generating multi-tissue models (containing several interacting tissues) and studying the molecular and cellular mechanisms of human development.

As keynote speakers, we have invited two world-renowned researchers to present their work on cerebral organoids: Orly Reiner (Weizmann Institute, Israel) and Alice Davy (CBI, Toulouse).
