Spinal cord organoids add an extra dimension to traditional motor neuron cultures

Since Lancaster et al. (2013) first described the formation of self-organizing cerebral organoids for modeling neurodevelopmental disorders, it became evident that three-dimensional (3D) neural organoid cultures are more superior systems for modeling neurodevelopment and neurodegeneration in human....
