Welcome to Orgamed Lab
The Orgamed Lab at the Department of Medical Sciences & Technology at IIT Madras is committed to developing advanced stem-cell-derived Organoid models to revolutionize pre-clinical research. Our mission is to reduce animal testing, enhance drug development, and create precise human disease models. Equipped with high-throughput facilities, we aim to expedite drug discovery and develop effective treatments, representing the future of pre-clinical innovation.

Electron Microscope Image of E.Coli Bacteria
Scanning Electron Microscopy image of disease-causing E. coli bacteria (pink) adhering to the surface of a human colonic organoid known as “mini-gut,” grown in a culture dish in the laboratory.
Differentiated Colonoid
3D-reconstruction of the surface of a differentiated colonoid stained for MUC2, ZO-1 and DAPI
Colonoid with Enteroaggregative E. Coli
The image displays colonoid infected with Enteroaggregative E. coli. The bacteria are shown in green, intestinal enterocyte nuclei in blue, actin filaments in white and mucus in red.
Colonoid with Enteroaggregative E. Coli

Human Nose Organoid Cultures
Immunofluorescence staining of human nose organoid cultures infected with SARS-CoV-2. Red shows basal stem cells, yellow tags SARS-CoV-2, green marks Goblet cells and blue shows nuclei.
