Organs on Chips: Using Science, Art, and Design to Understand the Human Body (TAB #37)
Wednesday, 19 November, 2025
In this episode, Don Ingber talks with Helen Osborne about:How organ-on-chip and “human body on chips” technologies are built and how they realistically mimic human organ function by combining living cells, blood flow, and mechanical forces like breathing and stretch.The implications of these chips for hematology and clinical care, including modeling coagulation and thrombosis, predicting drug responses and toxicities, advancing personalized medicine, and reducing reliance on animal models.His transdisciplinary journey blending science, art, engineering, and design, and why breaking down disciplinary boundaries is essential for transformative discovery, innovation, and teaching.
