Gamifying cell culture training: The ‘Seru-Otchi’ experience for undergraduates

For novice student researchers, acquiring the necessary specialized knowledge before their initial laboratory experience can be a formidable task. We have developed an educational and interactive virtual cell culture environment to help students learn. This interactive virtual lab aims to equip students with foundational knowledge in maintaining cortical brain organoids and to instill an understanding of pertinent safety procedures and laboratory etiquette. The gamification of this training process can provide laboratory supervisors in highly specialized fields with an effective tool to integrate students into their work environments more rapidly and safely.
