  • Human pluripotent stem cell-derived in vitro models have potential as tools to study aspects of human brain development. Here, Heilshorn and colleagues review biomaterial-based approaches that may be integrated into these models in an effort to develop them further and better recapitulate neurodevelopmental processes.

  • Maintaining neural progenitor cell stemness has proven challenging in vitro, due to their propensity to form cell-dense neurospheres. Here, the authors developed a 3D hydrogel system that supports neural progenitor cell stemness maintenance and differentiation by tuning matrix mechanics and cell-binding cues, enabling long-term expansion and neuron formation without needing dense cell clusters.

  • Bioprinting has potential in the biofabrication of three dimensional tissues, but is poorly suited to the manipulation of neural organoids. Here, the authors develop a bioprinting platform to allow the arrangement of organoids to form assembloids.

  • Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is a genetic disorder which is associated with kidney and liver pathology, including liver fibrosis. Here the authors develop and characterize human liver organoids with a ARPKD mutation, and find that they show aspects of the pathology, including fibrosis.

  • Organoids are 3D cell culture systems that mimic the structural and functional characteristics of organs. In this Review, the authors discuss the biochemical and mechanical material properties relevant for organoid formation and highlight materials designed with the aim to establish organoid cultures as powerful research platforms.
