The Diels-Alder reaction is a fundamental method in organic chemistry for producing cyclic organic compounds by combining a conjugated diene with an alkene. This reaction, named after Otto Diels and Kurt Alder, involves the formation of a six-membered ring with specific bond rearrangements. Conjugat

Research presented at the ENETS 2020 virtual meeting discussed the generation of organoids from lung, intestinal, and pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) to study normal neuroendocrine cells and their transformation to NENs. The success rate in generating organoids was higher for lung NENs co
