  "summary": "Microglia, the immune cells of the brain parenchyma, play a pivotal role in neurodevelopment and neuroprotection. Human stem cell-derived microglia-like cells (MGL) offer a valuable, human-relevant system to study microglia in vitro. However, their cell states and intercellular interactions within complex 3-dimensional (3D) tissue contexts in vitro remain underexplored. Here, we analyze the gene…",
