Organs-on-a-chip will help create advanced models of human organs for drug testing and other research abusing animals.
AAVS affiliate, the ARDF Alternatives Research & Development Foundation, is feeling proud this month! ARDF grantee Dongeun (Dan) Huh and his team at the University of Pennsylvania had an article published in the leading journal, Science.
The article explains how combining two new technologies, 'organoids' and 'organ-on-a-chip,' will help create advanced models of human organs for drug testing and other research. Liver-on-a-chip, anyone?
