Studying layers of cells grown on flat surfaces leaves a lot to be desired as cellular responses and gene expression change when cells are not in their native,
3-D arrangements. Researchers develop organoids from primary cell lines or stem cells, and these structures are similar in architecture to primary tissue,
which makes them relevant models of in vivo conditions. Scientists use organoids to study many areas of human biology, including toxicology, infection,
and cancer. Join this webinar, brought to you by The Scientist and sponsored by Bio-Techne and 10x Genomics, to learn how researchers use human
cerebral and tumor-derived organoids to better mimic the state of living tissue for drug development and infection studies.

Crucial Applications of Single-Cell Gene Expression
and Immune Profiling for Infectious Disease Research
The ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak has taken thousands of lives, and the number of infections is growing daily. In this webinar, sponsored
by 10x Genomics, Brian Fritz will discuss the utility of single-cell technologies to advance infectious disease research, highlighting how the scientific
community can respond to such events.
