Centre for Sustainable Animal Stewardship

tstam — Tue, 16 Jun 2026 17:05:29 +0000

At many levels, discussions evolve when it comes to living with animals. For example, management of wolves in the Netherlands, breeding on physical traits in dogs and the use of animals in laboratories for research. As many different interests and perspectives are involved, these discussions often reach an impasse. CenSAS provides a platform where stakeholders […]

Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Facility

tstam — Sat, 23 May 2026 13:24:29 +0000

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are created by reprogramming somatic cells through the forced expression of specific transcription factors. iPSCs possess strong self-renewal capabilities and pluripotency, meaning they can differentiate into virtually any cell type in the human body. As a result, iPSCs represent a valuable and unlimited cell source for in vitro disease modeling, […]

Utrecht Platform for Organoid Technology

tstam — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 14:02:45 +0000

Utrecht Platform for Organoid Technology (UPORT) is a central facility within the UMC Utrecht that supports the generation of ‘living biobanks’ of healthy and diseased human tissues. Such biobanks are typically generated using organoid and induced pluripotent stem cell culturing technologies. UPORT provides a logistical infrastructure for rapid and standardized acquisition of human tissues, based on approved protocols for patient inclusion.
