As an academic what excites me most is creating a highly versatile in-vitro system that captures full complexity of biology/disease.
Yet, for the system to be useful/translational, simplicity & applicability is key.
I think these can go together!

The @fda.gov recently published its Roadmap to Reducing Animal Testing in Preclinical Safety Studies. This is an exciting step forward in emphasizing the adoption of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs), focusing on human-derived in vitro and in silico models.

Why do hydrogels matter in organ-on-a-chip platforms?
Because biology is 3D.
Peptide hydrogels enable nutrient flow, realistic disease modelling, and more physiologically relevant in vitro systems. PeptiMatrix hydrogels are animal-free, reproducible, and built for innovation.

Experiments on animals aren't just ethically & scientifically flawed, they're costly. 💲
Animal facilities are expensive to build & run, especially in low-resource settings.
Affordable alternatives like #organsonchips can reduce suffering, boost relevance, & support global equity in science. 🧪
