Abstract

Five years ago, Li et al. (2014) and Gao et al. (2014) reported the power and unique advantages of cancer organoids. We shine a spotlight on the platform's enormous potential for studying cancer biology and as a preclinical human tumor model that can facilitate drug discovery and personalized therapy.
