Meeting Purpose
The workshop was designed to guide research directions that take advantage of human Tissue Chip platforms for assessing biocompatibility, immunogenicity, and biotoxicity of biomaterials for research and clinical application in tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, oncology, dentistry, cardiology, drug screening, and other areas. Among the priority discussion topics are the design and validation of Tissue Chip platforms for assessing biomaterial properties, and application of Tissue Chip platforms in predicting in vivo responses of tissues and organs to biomaterials.
