1. A method for preparing a composition of mature CD4+ CD8, or CD8ab+ CD4 T cells from stem or progenitor cells, the method comprising culturing a three-dimensional (3D) cell aggregate comprising:
a) a cell line of stromal cells that express a Notch ligand; and
b) a population of stem or progenitor cells generated in vitro from embryonic stem cells (ESCs), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), or human embryonic mesodermal progenitor cells;
wherein the 3D cell aggregate is cultured in a serum-free medium for a time period sufficient for in vitro differentiation of the stem or progenitor cells to mature T cells, wherein the 3D cell aggregate does not comprise an exogenous matrix or a scaffold.
