The variety of applications for tumoroids and organoids models. Directly derived from patient biopsy or surgery, synthetic tumor models can be used to study tumorigenesis, tumor growth, and interactions with the normal tissues. The drug discovery process should benefit from higher predictivity from these models than current preclinical models. The combination with microfluidic systems allows for better mimicry of the tumor dynamics and makes these tumor models suitable with high throughput/high content bioassays. Created with BioRender.com.
