Unlocking the full potential of human pluripotent stem cell–derived kidney organoids through bioengineering

Human pluripotent stem cells hold inherent properties, allowing researchers to recapitulate key morphogenetic processes. These characteristics, coupled with bioengineering techniques, have led to the definition of early procedures to derive organ-like cell cultures, the so-called organoids. With reg...
