Mostly, just advertising Jack Schnell's* impeccable taste in figure color choices. *soon to be first set of Ph.D. graduates from lab @lindstromlab.bsky.social. Here he describes the development of nephron cells in stem cell derived kidneys.

Defining and Controlling Axial Nephron Patterning in Human Kidney Organoids with Synthetic Wnt-Secreting Organizers Current human pluripotent stem cell-derived kidney organoids contain nephron-like structures that lack organotypic patterning. It is thought that during human development, nephrons form their proximal...

Recent preprint with @leonardomorsut.bsky.social. We perform detailed spatial transcriptional analyses of human kidney development to resolve how nephrons pattern, and build synthetic cell organizers to copy axial patterning using stem cells derived nephrons. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

A fluorescently stained kidney organoid made from stem cells. It shows cells and nuclei that are the precursors of potassium reabsorbing cells in the adult nephron.

Happy holidays! A very cool looking kidney organoid, courtesy of senior Ph.D. student MaryAnne Achieng in the @lindstromlab.bsky.social.

Want to highlight how a really fun collaborative project, Nils is as close as it gets to the prototypical omniscient kidney developmental biologist, it was so fun to learn from him about this fascinating developmental system. @lindstromlab.bsky.social

It has been such a fun project to work on and the collaboration with your lab has just taken it to a different level - great to work with true synbio magicians! I am now more convinced than ever before that artificial organs of the future will rely on synthetic inputs that tune self-organization.

We're excited to share our comprehensive protocol for generating human cerebellar #organoids, addressing the many requests we've received from the scientific community! Congratulations to Alex Atamian, @marcellabirtele.bsky.social, and Negar Hosseini! rdcu.be/d13Zu @natureportfolio.bsky.social
