We had a brilliant afternoon last Wednesday for the annual QMUL Centre for Predictive in vitro Models (CPM) Organ-on-a-Chip Technologies Network symposium. Approx 170 organ-on-a-chip researchers from across the UK descended on Blizard Institute (some of them online, or we would have needed a bigger auditorium!). cpm.qmul.ac.uk/events/4632/qmā¦
Great start to the ā¦QMUL Centre for Predictive in vitro Models (CPM)ā© ā¦Organ-on-a-Chip Technologies Networkā© annual symposium ā¦Blizard Instituteā©. Fantastic turnout and really good discussion of organ-on-a-chip models.
š¢Call for participants: RSPCA's Replacement Research Project!
