How can research be carried out without animal testing? We’ll show you how new research models, no bigger than a fingernail, can replicate complex organs such as the gut, liver and lungs, and how they are used in infection research.

Medical research without using animals at all? Yes, it’s possible – our research group develops and uses miniaturised model systems of the gut, liver and lungs to investigate the fundamentals of, and develop new treatments for, infectious and inflammatory diseases such as influenza, chronic inflammatory bowel disease, fatty liver and many more. At our information stand, we’ll give you a clear demonstration of what these models look like, how we can mimic human blood flow, and why stem cells are a key part of the solution. Do pop by and gain fascinating insights into the research of tomorrow!
