Congrats to this collaborative project on building better organoids, that you can read up on in Nature Nanotechnology:
Happy to share our DNA microbeads as a tool for #organoid research @NatureNano - hope the community finds it useful to create light-controlled morphogen gradients in organoids rdcu.be/dTpfA Congrats @AftingCassian @ToWalther and thanks @WittbrodtLab!
