First research publication in the frame of TheraTools Project

Kamil Ziaja has published his first research paper within TheraTools project: “Sensorization of microfluidic brain-on-a-chip devices: Towards a new generation of integrated drug screening systems”.
This review explores Brain-on-a-chip (BoC) devices, mimicking key aspects of the human brain. BoC is valuable for testing drug delivery to the brain. The focus is on advancements in BoC and blood-brain barrier-on-a-chip models, especially sensor technology. Biosensors enable real-time monitoring of processes like growth factor release and immune cell activation. The review highlights improvements in sensor technology, discussing their benefits, limitations, and future challenges in the field.
