It brings together expertise from seven partners to develop a new type of organs-on-a-chip. \u201cThis project offers a unique opportunity to culture individual nervous system components and connect them in a single smart microfluidic chip,\u201d details Prof. Jens Schwamborn, head of the research group at the LCSB. \u201cIt could pave the way for future development of therapeutic strategies.\u201d The project was launched last week with a kick-off meeting in Eindhoven."}
