The presentation will focus on recent developments and experimental results combining spherical microtissues with integrated microfluidic technology for creating microphysiological multi-tissue systems. I will highlight, why spheroids as a 3D cell culturing model are suitable for such application and how we implemented their integration into microfludic culturing systems for automated parallelized assays bearing high flexibility in application, robustness and usability. Further, the implementation of microsensors and pumps will be presented and discussed.
