Moderator: Fernando Tiberini Guest: Hans Clevers, Professor of Molecular Genetics, UMC Utrecht and Utrecht University The concept of growing mini human organs in a lab would once have seemed far-fetched. But Hans Clevers changed all that. Today, the organoids he invented are used to conduct safe and humane research in fields ranging from cancer treatments to anti-venom production, and from personalised medicine and the coronavirus.
