Human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cerebral organoids (COs) can serve as an <i>in vitro</i> model for studying normal and pathologic human brain development. Here, we optimized existing protocols to streamline the generation of forebrain COs from hiPSCs. We employ these COs to define the impact of disease-causing mutations on cell fate, differentiation, maturation, and morphology relevant to neurodevelopmental disorders. Although limited to forebrain CO identity, this schema req ...[more]
