Step-by-step video tutorial
The currently available preclinical cancer models are often inadequate for studying cancer biology, developing personalized therapeutics, and identifying unique biomarkers. To address this deficit, ATCC has collaborated with the Human Cancer Model Initiative (HCMI) to provide over 200 patient-derived models, including 135 organoids. Watch our tutorial to learn more about next-generation organoid models and to explore step-by-step instructions that thoroughly demonstrate the process of thawing, expanding, and cryopreserving them.

Transforming In Vitro Cancer Research With Next-generation Biological Models from the Human Cancer Models Initiative
There is an unmet need for preclinical cancer models that better reflect the genotype and phenotype across the spectrum of cancer found in the patient population. Watch this webinar to hear about the wide variety of patient-derived in vitro cancer models ATCC offers in collaboration with HCMI, including organoids, neurospheres, and conditionally reprogrammed cells.
