Dublin, May 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Organoids and Organs-on-Chips Europe 2022" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Innovations in Organoids and Organ-on-a-Chip Europe 2022 Conference will be held 21-22 June 2022 at the Hilton Rotterdam on-site and in-person as a regular conference and focuses on an important and expanding field wherein cells are being assembled using Microfluidics and Lab-on-a-Chip technologies in a functionally-relevant manner. These clusters of "assembled cells" have functional significance and can mimic in vivo organ structure.
Liver cells assembled on-board chips in a physiologically-relevant architecture using microfluidics can, for instance, be utilized for toxicity screening, and the ability to assemble organ fragments ex vivo can provide an exquisite means to reconstruct biological processes (both physiological and pathological) "in a dish" or "on a chip."
A number of chips such Lung-on-a-Chip, Brain-on-a-Chip, Gut-on-a-Chip, Marrow-on-a-Chip, Bone-on-a-Chip, Nerve-on-a-Chip amongst others have been built and will be presented and explored at this conference. We will also focus on "disease-on-a-chip", cancer-on-a-chip, immune system-on-a-chip.
This conference will be held co-located and concurrently with the Lab-on-a-Chip and Microfluidics Europe 2022 Conference. Conference attendees, sponsors, and exhibitors receive full access to both conferences for maximal scientific exchange and networking opportunities.
