Abstract
Human physiology and pathophysiology often involve systemic interactions between multiple organs or tissues, such as microbial-host interactions and metabolic crosstalk. While microfluidic platforms attractive to recapitulate these biological crosstalk, functional specifications and assay readouts must also be considered for the eventual translation of these devices. In this talk, a design thinking approach to the development of microfluidic multi-organ systems will be presented in the context of several drug testing or disease modeling scenario.
