Professor builds organ-on-chip technology for personalized...
November 12, 2020
Riccardo Barrile, assistant professor of biomedical engineering at the University of Cincinnati College of Engineering and Applied Science, is combining three powerful technologies — stem cells, 3D bioprinting and organs-on-chips — to create living human tissues and organs for use in drug screening, disease modeling and regenerative medicine. This research may someday lead to personalized medicine breakthroughs, fast-track development of new drug treatments, and eliminate the need for animal testing.
