For the first time, a team led by Reichert has successfully recreated the complex shape of pancreatic cancer cell clusters in the lab. In the body, tumor cell clusters are shaped like glands, with many branches that resemble ducts. However, when individual tumor cells are used to grow artificial 3D cell clusters in the lab, known as organoids, the traditional method only creates round structures.
