Single-cell multi-omic atlas and morphogen screening informs midbrain and hindbrain organoid engineering (opens in new tab)

Patterning of the neural tube establishes midbrain and hindbrain structures that coordinate motor movement, process sensory input and integrate cognitive functions. Cellular impairment within these structures underlies diverse neurological disorders, and in vitro organoid models promise inroads to understanding development and modeling disease. Here, we use paired single-cell transcriptome and accessible chromatin sequencing to map cell composition and regulatory mechanisms in organoid models...
