# On demand presentation

Organoids Are Us 2021 | Doherty Institute 

### Model human disease and identify predictive biomarkers of response

### Talk highlights

![Virtual 3D Cell Culture Summit 2021 presentation](https://resources.huborganoids.nl/hs-fs/hubfs/Assets%202022/2021-organoids-are-us.jpg?width=400&name=2021-organoids-are-us.jpg)Drug discovery and development should be performed using advanced preclinical models, directly derived from patient tissue, that can predict clinical response. This will improve patient stratification and the identification of predictive biomarkers, before a single patient has been dosed. In this presentation Dr. Rob Vries, CEO at HUB will discuss:

- How HUB Organoids® bridge the gap between the lab and clinic, offering more clinically relevant *in vitro* models that faithfully mimic human disease pathology and physiology
- That HUB Organoids can effectively predict patient response when used in drug screen, thus improving the current drug discovery and development process
