Always Spot the Cells That Think They’re In Vivo

2D cell culture has had an extraordinary place in cell culture history and will remain a viable cell culture model for many uses. Yet with the rise of promising new opportunities within such fields of study as cancer research and stem cell differentiation, using 2D models to obtain useful information about in vivo biological processes has created challenges.

As research demands have become increasingly complex, we have been there every step of the way, creating 3D cell culture solutions that allow you to produce optimal environments for growing cells that exhibit in-vivo like behaviors and functionality.

Explore the Corning Life Sciences site to discover the diverse applications cell culture solutions have in furthering scientific discoveries. These 3D cell culture applications include:

  • Cancer research
  • Cell growth and differentiation
  • Stem cell biology
  • Immunology
  • Neurobiology

As you'll see, we've provided extensive online resources on the various cell culture applications from leading scientists, including Corning experts, who have shared their insights, protocols, studies, tips, and much more to help you get off to a great start. And check out how Corning supports research at every step, providing a full line of vessels, surfaces, and mediaalong with complete cell culture applications support, to help you harness the power of 3D modeling.
