bioengineering
Organoid, cluster of cells cultivated within a three-dimensional matrix under laboratory conditions that replicates the structure and function of a specific organ in the human body. Organoids are engineered to facilitate interactions between cells and multiple cell types, as well as between cells and their surrounding environment. These structures differ from conventional cell cultures in that the latter are two-dimensional, generally feature only a single cell type, and are produced on a flat, rigid surface,...
