    Entered my first academic lab in 1978. Fond memories of >40 years in science with great colleagues at public institutions in Kenya, the US and in my country, the Netherlands. Excited to step into the pharma world as head of research/early development at Roche, Basel in March

    A bispecific #antibody which distinguishes #cancer cells from healthy cells, doesn't care about #KRAS mutations & was developed entirely on human cancer #organoids. In 3 years from drawing board to clinic. Congrats to all collaborators. Read: rdcu.be/cL4xS

    Growing human tear gland #organoids and making them cry... 😢 Done by PhD students Marie Bannier and Yorick Post in collaboration with Saskia Imhoff and ophthalmology colleagues at #UMCutrecht. See: authors.elsevier.com/a/1cl8i6tu0CeS…

    Reptilian tissues can be grown as #organoids. See paper by Yorick Post et al in #Cell today. Snake #venom gland #organoids produce a full complement of toxins. Step towards improved treatment of #snakebite, known to kill 100,000 people yearly?

    First-in-man clinical trial in post-radiation cancer patients with dry mouth and consequent severe damage to the oral cavity. Transplantation with salivary gland #organoids, developed by Rob Coppes c.s. at UMCG Groningen, Netherlands. Starts this summer!

    A must-read for anyone interested in stem cells. And this includes myself, because Christine, Anja and Bernard did all the hard work

    Patient-derived #cancer #organoids hold great promise for personalized medicine. Here, Else Driehuis and Kai Kretzschmar describe how to establish (cancer) organoids and how to test their in vitro sensitivity to anti-cancer therapy rdcu.be/b7N57
