Researchers from the Wyss Institute Harvard University have developed a system for replicating complex, 3-D tissues in the human body using circuitry combined with living cells. Organ-on-a-chip technology mimics the natural function and structure of human organs to easily and accurately predict the effects of drugs and toxins on human tissues and systems. This not only could allow for more accurate testing, but it could also eliminate the need for animal and human testing.
