SUMMARY:CBR Virtual Summer Seminar Series: "Organs-on-Chip: Design Considerations and Applications"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Karen Cheung\, Professor\nDepartment of Electrical & Computer Engineering\nDirector\, Graduate Biomedical Engineering Program & Associate Director\nMember\, Centre for Blood Research \nTopic: “Organs-on-Chip: Design Considerations and Applications”\nPresented by: Tanya Bennet\, Vinny Randhawa\, Jessica Hua and Tiffany Cameron \nOrgans-on-chips are small-scale tissues containing living cells that mimic organ structures\, and they show strong potential for improving preclinical-to-clinical translation during drug development. We are developing a microfluidic organ-on-chip model that incorporates a novel 3-dimensional extracellular matrix and an architecture comprising a epithelial layer and endothelial-lined lumen with stromal cells to model small airways in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). We aim to characterize the response of airways-on-a-chip to woodsmoke or cigarette smoke. We will develop new microscopy methods to monitor how these tissues respond to compounds or stressors. We are also developing a microfluidic model of the brain microvasculature\, with applications for studying neurodegenerative disease. This presentation will highlight several projects in our laboratory in organs-on-chip. \n
