Abstract
Neurodevelopment involves the migration, projection, and integration of various cell types across different regions of the nervous system. Assembloids are self-organizing systems formed by the integration of multiple organoids or cell types. Here, we outline the generation and application of assembloids. We illustrate how assembloids recapitulate critical neurodevelopmental steps, like migration, axon projection, and circuit formation, and how they are starting to provide biological insights into neuropsychiatric disorders. Additionally, we review how assembloids can be used to study properties emerging from cell-cell interactions within non-neural tissues. Overall, assembloid platforms represent a powerful tool for discovering human biology and developing therapeutics.
