The Glomerulus-On-A-Chip as a Platform for Disease Modeling, Drug Screening, Biomarker Discovery and Mechanistic Studies

Explore the groundbreaking Glomerulus-On-A-Chip technology in this 23-minute webinar presented by Dr. Stefano Da Sacco, Assistant Professor at Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California. Delve into the complexities of the glomerular filtration barrier and learn about the emerging role of microfluidic systems in studying renal diseases. Discover how this innovative platform can be used for disease modeling, drug screening, biomarker discovery, and mechanistic studies. Gain insights into the potential of this technology for investigating factors affecting podocytes and glomerular endothelial cells' response to injury. Understand the challenges in developing accurate multicellular in vitro models that mimic the glomerular filtration barrier's architecture and how the Glomerulus-On-A-Chip addresses these issues.
