Event Details

This workshop aims at providing a basic review of different 3D cell-culture and microtissue-culture technologies, and at illustrating their applications in oncology and toxicology.
In addition, examples of the successful use of microtissue models up to the regulatory level are given for skin applications as well as the use of 3D microtissue models in high-content screening. How Fluofarma, a CRO with a substantial experience in the field, is doing this, will be presented during the workshop as well.
Free with advance RSVP to: info@insphero.com

Workshop attendees will benefit from the latest insights into 3D cell-culture technologies for toxicological and efficacy studies. In addition, the workshop is a platform for scientific exchange and provides the chance to meet and network with academic and industry peers active and interested in the field.
