Organ-on-a-chip
Since 2012, more and more researchers, companies and labs have worked on organ-on-a-chip technologies. They allow to perform cell cultures that can, thanks to microfluidics, mimic the cells’ microenvironment, such as the human body. Thus, these chips could become wonderful search accelerators and we hope that, in ten years, they could replace animal testing. Finally, OOCs could lead to the development of personalized medicine. This page gathers all the tutorials and reviews of Elveflow of this field.
