Abstract

The developing human cerebellum has a greater diversity of progenitor types than that of the mouse, necessitating a human-based model for studying cerebellar development and disease. Atamian et al.<sup>1</sup> developed a 3D organoid model of cerebellar development, which recapitulates many cell types found in the developing human cerebellum, including Purkinje-neuron-like cells.
