Advancing cancer research with human-specific organ-chips

Organs-on-chips are designed to mimic the complexity of human organs, allowing scientists to study tumor behavior, drug responses, and personalized treatments with greater precision. Hear from Prof. Shannon Mumenthaler, Chief Translational Research Officer at Ellison Medical Institute, as she shares how the creation of these new disease model systems is helping to advance her work on understanding the role of the tumor microenvironment in influencing tumor progression and treatment response.
