Mini-brains from the petri dish and big data: How basic research drives the future of medicine
Organoids recapitulate the cellular complexity and functionality of human organs in a petri dish. We combine organoids and 3D cell cultures derived from tumor tissue with advanced spatial transcriptomics and bioinformatics tools. These technologies allow us to uncover the molecular mechanisms underlying diseases as well as the impact of microplastics in the brain. We can map gene activity within intact tissue, revealing where specific cells are located and how they interact in their environment.

Max-Delbrück-Centrum für Molekulare Medizin in der Helmholtz-Gemeinschaft (MDC)
Max-Delbrück-Centrum für Molekulare Medizin (MDC)Seit 30 Jahren gibt es das Max-Delbrück-Centrum in Berlin, es ist ein weltweit führendes biomedizinisches Forschungszentrum. Wir analysieren das System Mensch – die Grundlagen des Lebens von seinen kleinsten Bausteinen bis zu organübergreifenden Mechanismen. So wollen wir Krankheiten vorbeugen, sie möglichst früh erkennen und passgenau therapieren.
