Tissuechips New Findings

In a handful of labs around the U.S., researchers are creating human tissue from stem cells and manipulating them to replicate the functions of human organs, all on platforms about the size of a thumb drive. This research platform is known as a ‘human-on-a-chip’, and it has the potential to change the nature of medical treatment. They simply hold tissue swatches that mimic a fully functioning human heart, or liver, or lung. Also testing the impact of chemical weapons on humans using organs mounted on microchips
