Super excited to share that we will be expanding our ambitions to advance #organoid research with a translational goal at Institute of Human Biology! Stay tuned for our latest discoveries in the exciting fields of human model systems and human biology. 👉Learn more: institutehumanbiology.com

Excited to be part of the new Institute of Human Biology team!

Thrilled to be part of Institute of Human Biology and continue to explore enteroendocrine cell biology and hormones with Joep Beumer Find out more about our research here: institutehumanbiology.com/about-the-ihb/…




Exciting times at Institute of Human Biology! A new PhD program with D-BSSE, ETH Zurich -> next-gen-bioengineers.ethz.ch/doctorate.html. A search for new group leaders (early career) -> institutehumanbiology.com/about-the-ihb/…. It is a very interesting intersection at the moment: Exploration, Engineering, Translation! #Organoids #Basel


One-step generation of tumor models by base editor multiplexing in adult stem cell-derived organoids - out now in Nature Communications nature.com/articles/s4146…

Bioengineered models of the immune system like #organoids & organs-on-chips may help us 1) understand human (patho)physiology & 2) design better therapies for immune-related pathologies.👏Nature Reviews Bioengineering review rdcu.be/dl2qe by #TeamIHB's Nikolche Gjorevski & colleagues


Thanks for the spotlight on my work and the many kind words! Institute of Human Biology

Had a great time catching up with wonderful science & scientists at #EESorgan in Heidelberg EMBL Events and very hyped I could present our work on EECs for the first time! Special thanks to the Institute of Human Biology team Joep Beumer Gray Camp and #LukasAdam


We are looking for an intern to join our team at Institute of Human Biology ! This is not your average internship – it's an opportunity to immerse yourself in the bioengineering the most complex human organs-on-a-chip systems. Check more details here: drive.google.com/file/d/19hzUHY…


1. Adult stem cells (ASCs) compensate for cell loss during daily wear and tear. Evolution has created a variety of stem cell designs. In this review, Hans Clevers and I define six hallmarks that are key enabling features of the basic function of ASCs, replacing lost tissue.

An incredible exchange of letters between two Russian heroes: Alexei Navalny (from his prison cell, before his murder) and Natan Sharansky (from freedom in Israel). thefp.com/p/navalnys-let…. An exclusive from The Free Press:

Fantastic talk by Joep Beumer about modeling intestinal maturation and function using organoids. Intestinal, colon and stomach organoid models, diabetes drug response, chrono cell tracing , editing cells, and moreee! Institute of Human Biology



A team from the Organoid group and Institute of Human Biology Roche has uncovered nutrient sensors on gut hormone-producing cells using organoids. The characterization of these sensors will help in treating metabolic & gut motility disorders. Joep Beumer Hans Clevers hubrecht.eu/intestinal-nut…


New Science Magazine study in collab with Institute of Human Biology! We identified novel receptors on enteroendocrine cells (EECs) that regulate secretion of endogenous hormones. These harbor therapeutic potential for metabolic disease. Read the paper go.roche.com/m9hah or 🧵⬇️
