  • Switzerland: Researching Endometriosis Using Organoids
    A research team led by Dr. Margherita Yayio Turco from Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, based in Basel, has succeeded in replicating the menstrual cycle in vitro using organoids. The endometrial organoids can mimic the natural breakdown and regrowth of the uterine mucosa in response to hormones, making it possible to track how different cell types interact and regenerate tissue over time.
