So this is your lab. >> Yes, this is where we do the organ chip cultures. >> Ingber relies largely on federal funding for his work identifying new therapies using what he calls organs on chips.This breakthrough technology, tiny tissue line devices can replace animal testing. So what does that allow you to do. We can study how the body normally works.We study response to drugs, response to toxins, drug delivery systems. >> Federal grants have made up almost half the university's research funding. Ingber and ...
