This book covers the technologies necessary to develop organ-on-a-chip systems, including microfabrication, 3D bioprinting, 3D cell culture techniques, biosensor design and microelectronics, microfluidics, data collection, and predictive analysis. It details specific tissue types that have been developed for disease modeling and drug discovery applications, including lung, liver, heart, skin, and kidney "on-a-chip" as well as recent progress in designing an entire "body-on-a-chip" system. It also provides an overview of other current and potential applications of these systems.
