Organoids are 3D, miniature versions of organs grown from stem cells. They replicate organ structure and function, making them essential for studying tissue homeostasis, disease mechanisms, and developing new therapies.

This research interest group encompasses all organoid-related research at King’s College London.

Here, organoids are used in studies of development, infection, inflammation, drug delivery, and transplantation; in wide variety of tissues including, intestine, pancreas, lung, heart, retina, brain, inner ear, and synovium and: in a wide range of diseases such as  cancer, diabetes, IBD, Parkinson’s, food allergy, fatty liver disease, congenital hyperinsulinism, choroid plexus injury, and cardiovascular disease.
