HELSINKI, Nov. 14 (Xinhua) -- The University of Oulu in Finland announced on Thursday that its researchers have developed a new method to grow functional blood vessels within lab-grown mini-organs, known as organoids.
Organoids are small, simplified versions of organs created in the lab to mimic essential functions and structures of real organs. Adding blood vessels is crucial for making these organoids work more like real organs and enhancing their potential in medical research.
