The organ-on-a-chip is an in vitro platform with the potential to reproduce the physiological behavior of in vivo tissue. It is a type of artificial organ, but on a chip, that could be used for pharmacokinetic models.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of metabolic disorders affecting 25% of our global population. 20% of NAFLD patients go on to develop Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (N...
Ninety percent of therapeutic agents reaching clinical trial fail to reach entry to market, with safety concerns being a major cause for failures in phase I and II clinical trials. Drug-indu...
Date: June 21, 2022 Time: 10:00am (PST), 1:00pm (EST), 7:00pm (CEST) The proteome is perhaps the most dynamic and valuable source of functional biological insight. Here, we introduce a novel...
Date: June 09, 2022 Time: 9:00am (PDT), 12:00pm (EDT), 6:00pm (CEST) Thousands of researchers worldwide have utilized microfluidics technology from Standard BioTools for genomics application...
The quest for alternatives to animal safety testing has fueled the development, characterization, and validation of many new technologies. There have been advances in cell and tissue models...
Current drug discovery workflows are inefficient. 90% of therapeutic agents reaching clinical trials fail, predominantly because traditional laboratory experiments fail to adequately predict...
This drug development program is designed to create a family of broad-spectrum, pan-coronaviral drugs that respectively inhibit multiple key enzymes required for viral replication. By target...
Date: November 19, 2020 Time: 12:00am (PDT), 9:00am (CET), 4:00pm (SGT) We present split-FISH, a multiplexed fluorescence in situ hybridization method that leverages a split-probe design to...
Date: October 15, 2020 Time: 9:00am (PDT), 12:00pm (EDT) Renal transporters play an important role in potential clinical drug-drug interactions (DDIs) as highlighted in the FDA, EMA and PMDA...
Infectious diseases, such as COVID-19, are challenging to study in animal models due to species differences, and conventional 2D cell-based systems lack the complexity to appropriately model...
Precision medicine is the paradigm to develop treatments for patients based on molecular-targets that are effective in vivo when administered. In addition to identifying the molecular and ce...
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive disease associated with poor outcome. It is expected to be the leading cause of cancer-related death in 2030. The unique microe...
Experimental models that promise to replace animal tests that are currently required for drugs and chemicals are rapidly proliferating. This includes a number of novel solutions offered by b...
Learning Objectives: 1. What is wrong with healthcare today 2. What kinds of omics and wearables data can be used to best predict disease risk and manage health...
The OrganoPlate is a microtiterplate based Organ-on-a-Chip platform for high throughput drug safety and efficacy screening. It contains up to 96 cell culture chambers that allow co-culture o...
Microphysiological systems (MPS), also known as organ-on-chips, are small scale in vitro cell cultures which mimic facets of tissue or organ level function. MPS frequently utilise primary hu...
Tissues in the body are wonderfully organized, with specific arrangements of cells, extracellular matrix, secreted molecules, and fluid flow that synergize that create emergent functions. How...
In this seminar, Dr Elvira will talk about the use of droplet microfluidic technologies for drug discovery. Initially, she will discuss the fundamental concepts of droplet microfluidic techno...
Recent technological advances as well as longitudinal monitoring not only have the potential to improve the treatment of disease (Precision Medicine) but also empower people to stay healthy (...
In-vitro epithelial barrier models that are more representative of in-vivo tissues are urgently needed. Here we present extracellular matrix-supported intestinal tubules in a perfused microfl...
Isolated hepatocytes or their enzymes comprise the basis of most in vitro DMPK and toxicity assays used to predict human hepatic outcomes. Because hepato-specific functions are typically lost...
Pharmaceutical research and development efforts are often both inefficient and suffer from a high attrition rate of drug candidates within the clinical phase of development. Most drug t...
The lung is a highly complex organ, comprised of more than 40 cell types that are responsible for various important functions, the lung’s complexity contributes to the subsequent challe...
