Methods to sequence DNA and RNA in single cells are being used to analyze these so-called ‘organoid’ systems in high-resolution. Single-cell transcriptomics has been used to quantitate the similarity of organoid cells to primary tissue counterparts in the brain, intestine, liver, and kidney, as well as identify cell-specific responses to environmental variables and disease conditions. The merging of these two technologies, single-cell genomics and organoids, will have profound impact on personalized medicine in the near future. %J Current Opinion in Biotechnology %V 55 %& 167 %P 167 - 171 %@ 0958-1669
