Come join the Brain Organoid Hub this October for a hands-on and immersive workshop to learn the ins
and outs of brain organoid culture! We will be offering in-depth training, expert lectures, and practical demos. Apply now at https://t.co/slRsdEFLmA.

We're excited to announce that the Brain Organoid Hub is hiring! If you, or someone you know, has an interest in working with stem cells and brain organoids as a Research Specialist, please feel free to apply 🔬https://t.co/STWEu4sJVY

It was so fun to see these talented scientists work hard to master iPSC/organoid techniques in record time! We are so proud of our first workshop cohort and can't wait to see how they incorporate organoids into their science. Sincerest thank you from all of us. 🫶

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

On the last day of the workshop, @Sloan_Lab and @fikribirey discussed best practices and special considerations for designing experiments using brain organoids.

Emory Brain Organoid Workshop Day 4: We learned about genome engineering from @NURIeSMITH and then imaged organoid IHC slides. Check out this beautiful rosette stain by @MarcusHLee1!

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

All smiles today when we imaged the Emory Brain Organoid workshop IHC slides! The rosettes were stunning!!!

On Day 3 of the workshop we learned about iPSC/organoid QC, assembloids, transcriptomics and genomics! In the lab, we dislodged D0 embryoid bodies and immunopanned for neurons and astrocytes from D200 cortical organoids!

Thank you @ParseBio for sponsoring the Emory Brain Organoid Workshop. We really appreciate the insights on combinatorial barcoding and single cell sequencing shared by Mia and Colleen! 🧬🦠

Thank you to our wonderful sponsor @CelVivo3D for supporting the Emory Brain Organoid Workshop! We are grateful to Dr. Reeham Motaher for speaking at our lunch and learn yesterday.

Day 2 of the Emory Brain Organoid Hub workshop was super exciting--participants aggregated iPSCs to form embryoid bodies, recorded MEA experiments, and stained their first neuroepithelial rosettes!!! Today we're immunopanning and blowing out the embryoid bodies.

The Emory Brain Organoid Workshop is grateful for support from one of our favorite companies @STEMCELLTech! Thank you, Will and Tom, for invaluable discussions about iPSC culture, quality control, and best practices! 🧫📈

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

Our inaugural Emory Brain Organoid Hub Workshop is underway! We have 10 participants visiting us from as far away as Japan and Australia.🌏 This immersive, hands on workshop is focused on iPSC-derived organoid cultures. What would you want to learn? 🧠

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

We have a question for our organoid community:

What do you consider a biological replicate in your experiments?

A) Organoids from different hiPSC lines
B) Organoids from the same hiPSC lines and the same batch
C) Organoids from the same line but different batches
D) Other

We're just one week away from the Brain Organoid Workshop application deadline (April 15th)! Please make sure to submit your application at https://t.co/slRsdEFLmA. We can't wait to meet this year's workshop trainees! 🔬

[Jimena Andersen @jimena_andersen]

The Andersen lab and Emory Brain Organoid Hub are looking for a motivated Research Specialist to contribute to a project generating and characterizing region-specific organoids and assembloids derived from ALS and control hiPSCs. Join us!

Congrats to the Birey Lab! We're all super excited to see the impactful work that will come from this project.

[Fikri Birey @fikribirey]

We are excited to receive the NIH Stephen I. Katz ESI RO1 Grant!

With its support, we will use merge novel genomic & imaging techonologies with organoid models to better understand developmental signaling underlying human neural specification at scale: https://t.co/k6GOCjKK1K.

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

@hennajaentti We're happy to hear it!

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

Is it really necessary to feed your cortical or subpallial organoids every weekend? The answer to that question, including our new "recipes & protocols" section, can be found on our website! https://t.co/LrdCb8nC8P

[Jimena Andersen @jimena_andersen]

So happy to see this study out in @NatureNeuro! Fun collaboration with amazing @N_S_Thom

[BrainOrganoidHub @BrainOrg_Hub]

Please join us this Wednesday at World Organoid Research Day as our Hub Manager, Alexia King, will be giving an introduction to the Brain Organoid Hub and providing details on how you can get involved! Register here for free access: https://t.co/R2TeYtCeZ4
