Dublin, June 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Organoids, Spheroids & Organs-on-Chips 2024" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This conference 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.
Registered delegates will have full access to the co-located and concurrent conference tracks to mix-and-match presentations and maximize networking:
- Lab-on-a-Chip and Microfluidics 2024 - From Technologies to Commercialization
- Innovations in Flow Cytometry and Extracellular Vesicles 2024
- Organoids, Spheroids and Organs-on-Chips 2024
There are ample opportunities for networking, partnering and business development and this ensures a very cost-effective conference trip.
