In this podcast episode, MRS Bulletin’s Sophia Chen interviews Samual Stupp from Northwestern University about his group’s research on developing treatments for spinal cord injuries by use of an organoid. The researchers fabricated the human spinal cord organoid by including microglial cells, which are the immune cells in the central nervous system. They mimicked various kinds of spinal injuries, then applied different injury treatments to see how the organoid responded best. This work was published in a recent issue of Nature Biomedical Engineering.
