Excited to share our new study on an integrated human SCBEM! Congratulations to Seiya and Leijie! While the model isn’t perfect, we hope it serves as a valuable tool to help tackle some of the key unanswered questions in early human development.

Excited to share our new study in Cell—congrats to Daniel, co-authors, and our collaborators in the @PeterLyLab What began as pure curiosity led to a tool for modulating mitochondrial abundance in vitro and in vivo. A new direction for the Wu lab begins!
