Many promising new drugs fail human clinical trials due to a lack of efficacy or unanticipated toxicity. More predictive non-clinical models that reprise human physiology and accurately evaluate drug pharmacokinetics and safety are urgently needed. Building on organ-on-a-chip technology, researchers developed an intestine-on-a-chip that recapitulates the human gut. In this webinar, Bill Thelin will discuss how intestine-on-a chip technology reliably models gastrointestinal disease and assists researchers in screening for safe, effective therapeutic candidates.
Topics to be covered
Modeling chronic gastrointestinal disease with organ-on-a-chip technology
Accelerating drug discovery and development with human primary intestinal cultures
