Organoids have become a new way of studying the details of how our tissues function and to test potential new drugs in a highly realistic environment. Growing these three dimensional bits of organs from stem cells is not easy, which is why Petri dishes continue to be the standard in cellular culturing.

Now researchers at University of Washington and University of Michigan have created a robotic system that grows kidney organoids from pluripotent stem cells with little human intervention.

It takes minutes to get the process going and the robot also analyzes and sorts the resulting organoids, which can be produced by the thousands.
