Tech Blast | Organ-on-a-chip models of fatty liver disease
In this Tech Blast episode, we discuss preclinical models of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with Gareth Guenigault, Lead Scientist of Services at CN Bio (Cambridge, UK). Gareth provides an overview of the non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) therapeutic landscape and explains how incorporating organ-on-a-chip models into drug discovery workflows can improve this landscape.
Get Gareth’s expert insight into the field and discover how to develop liver-on-a-chip NASH models, tips for analyzing the resultant data, and the future of organ-on-a-chip technologies.
