Organ-on-a-Chip Technology: Mimicking Human Organs for Drug Testing and Disease Modeling
Author(s): Chenguang Ling*
Organ-on-a-Chip (OOC) technology stands at the forefront of innovative approaches in biomedical research, providing a platform to replicate the complex microenvironment of human organs in a controlled and customizable manner. This transformative technology has the potential to revolutionize drug testing and disease modeling by offering a more physiologically relevant alternative to traditional in vitro and animal testing methods. In this narrative, we delve into the principles, applications, advancements, and implications of organon-a-chip technology, exploring how it mimics human organs to enhance our understanding of diseases and streamline the drug development process...
