Researchers have recreated the human ascending sensory pathway in a lab dish, using organoids that model the key brain and ...

Immediate use for the newly developed assembloids could include studying neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism.

centered in four different regions of the ascending sensory pathway: the dorsal root ganglion, dorsal spinal cord, thalamus and somatosensory cortex. "We can now model this pathway non-invasively ...

A human ascending somatosensory assembloid model was developed, which integrates multiple organoids to simulate the spinothalamic pathway, demonstrating functional connectivity and responsiveness ...

Disruptions to this pathway ... in four different parts of the ascending sensory pathway: the dorsal root ganglion, dorsal spinal cord, thalamus, and somatosensory cortex. The researchers used ...
