The Hidden Variable in Your Intestinal Organoids: Enhancing Differentiation for a More Predictive Model

On June 4, 2025, Dr. Martin Stahl led a webinar exploring how cellular composition affects organoid performance in drug response and toxicity assays. He also introduced IntestiCult™ Plus Organoid Growth Medium, a next-generation organoid medium that supports simultaneous expansion and differentiation of intestinal organoids. Below are answers to audience questions from the session, edited for brevity and clarity.
