All-in-one approach to culture, image and quantify large numbers of organoids at all scales

    We developed a streamlined approach coupling microfabricated cell culture substrates, 3D single-objective light sheet imaging and artificial intelligence quantifications to characterize the variability of morphologies of small organoids. Arrayed organoids can be imaged in 3D at around 100 organoids per hour.
