3D Cell Culture: Miniature Dimensions Drive Massive Advances

Cell culture has been advancing biological and biomedical research since the first cell line was established in the late 1940s. Cells have mostly been cultured in a two-dimensional (2D) format as a monolayer adhered to a dish or plate well. In the past two decades, however, researchers have begun to switch gears, transitioning away from 2D in favor of three-dimensional (3D) cultures.
