Symposium on cortical and spinal organoids

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).
