Fascinating research. The snake info was cool too. Any idea how long it would be before you could grow human livers/organs to be used for transplants? You said at the beginning you're not using stem cells as the progenitor, but donor cells from the mouse. If that is reproduceable in humans at some point, does that mean that rejection shouldn't be a problem?
Actually , doing transplantation with organoids is one of the goals of the research. Unfortunately , this is not yet possible due to ethical issues ( according to my teacher )
this is biology, stem cell biology to be exact, not organic chemistry at all, at least no trained organic chemist can do this. its a different discipline.
Thank you for this very interesting set of videos.

What ethical issues?
Amazing!
Beautiful
the clownfish at the end :D 🐠
even knowing zero about organic chemistry, this is fascinatin !!

I wonder were there any GVH reactions when human hepatocyte organoids were transplanted into FAH-/- mice? Anyway amazing work!
Venom gland organoids are great for vegan assassins! :-D
