Scientists build - mini-stomachs' using stem cell

Scientists using stem cells said on Wednesday they had built the world's first "mini-stomachs" - tiny clusters of human gastric tissue that could spur research into cancer, ulcers and diabetes. Called gastric organoids, the lab-dish tissue comprises buds of cells that are "a miniature version of the stomach," the researchers said.
