Silvia received her master’s degree in Biomedical Sciences at Maastricht University (The Netherlands) and specialized in Tissue Engineering. Her dissertation at the MERLN Institute for Technology-Inspired Regenerative Medicine focused on deriving kidney progenitor cells from human embryonic stem cells for bioprinting complex renal 3D tissue models. Currently, she works at Mimetas in the development of better predictive 3D cancer tissue models applicable for high-throughput screening of drug candidates and personalized therapy applications.

In this presentation, scientific experts from MIMETAS and Molecular Devices will introduce the culture and interrogation of complex 3D tissues models in the OrganoPlate®, a unique 3D organ-on-a-chip platform, including models for gut-on-a-chip, angiogenesis and immuno-oncology. We will show examples of Organ-on-a-Chip tissues for use in disease modeling and drug safety testing and will present the new OrganoPlate® Graft, which allows vascularization of spheroids, organoids and PDX explants, and offers a powerful solution for the study of angiogenesis, an important focus for cancer therapeutics. These complex 3D tissue cultures can be interrogated in a high-throughput manner using powerful cellular imaging and analysis systems. We will show how Molecular Device’s ImageXpress imaging systems play a vital role in the development and analysis of 3D tissue models, such as those built on the OrganoPlate® platform, by enabling translatable assays and readouts for healthy and diseased human organ models as well as quantitative characterization of complex phenotypic effects.
