News & Events

During this symposium, you will learn more about the latest developments in the field of organ-on-chip across the Nordic countries. There will sessions on computational approaches, chip technology, multicellular cultures and biomaterials.

Submit your abstract before the 31st of July 2019 to be selected for a short talk or a poster presenter.

The theme of the TERMIS-EU Workshop is "3D Bioprinting in cancer research" and covers following topics:  

• Cancer microenvironment
• Tumor models
• Tissue reconstruction
• Organ-on-chip
• ...

Hands-on sessions in 3D modelling and bioprinting are organised by the partners of the event.

Learn more about the ‘Neurosphere Assay’ and the ‘Omnisphero’ software as part of the developmental neurotoxicity testing battery in this webinar by Prof. Ellen Fritsche (Leibniz Research Institute for Environmental Medicine). 

The assay can be used to study pathways for implications in neurodevelopmental processes and to analyse multiple neurodevelopmental endpoints.

The Swiss 3Rs Day celebrates 60 years of Russel & Burch's 3Rs principle. There will be 3 sessions, each one dedicated to a particular R. Furthermore, there will be a debate on the use of replacement approaches to produce affinity-reagent antibodies and a plenary lecture on the best practice and alternatives in education and training.

This year’s congress theme is “Smartificial devices for our future”. Clinicians, researchers and engineers from public and private organisations across Europe will discuss the latest progress in artificial organ research and medical technologies. How miniaturization, remote control and biohybrid systems will lead to innovation and “smartificial” organs.

The UK's largest conference where Biomedical Engineers, Medical Engineers and Bioengineers meet.

Sessions on Artificial Organs, Biofluids, Biomedical Imaging, Cancer Engineering, Digital Health Engineering, In silico models and person-specific treatment, Lung Biomechanics, Organ on a chip, Modelling Biological Systems, Prosthetics, Skin Engineering, Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine,... 

EUROTOX is a Federation of more than 40 European societies of toxicology representing 7,500 European toxicologists. The annual congresses rotate from one European country to another providing diversity to the venues and contents of the congress. The number of participants is approximately 1,500. This congress will offer a change to tackle with the burning chemical safety challenges of the next decade. This year the theme of the Congress is “Toxicology – Science Providing Solutions”.
