What applications do organoids have in biomedicine?

Organoids have a wide range of applications in biomedicine. For example, they can be used to investigate the effects of gene mutation in genetic disorders, interactions between host cells and infectious agents in the context of infectious disease, or the effectiveness and toxicity of experimental drugs. Patient-derived tumor organoids further can be applied to personalized treatment decisions in patients with cancer.
