Microfluidics for Organ-on-Chip at MPS World Summit 2025
At MPS World Summit 2025, which took place from June 9 to 12, in Brussels, the µFlow Cell presented its microfluidics solutions for organ-on-chip, hosting booth 116.
The µFlow Cell is a VUB Group of Excellence in Advanced Research (GEAR) with expertise in the design and modeling of innovative microfluidic solutions, the fabrication of microfluidic devices and systems, and engineering and production of novel materials, targeting medical, pharmaceutical and biotech applications. The µFlow Cell has a dedicated team of more than 45 scientists and technicians with access to dedicated laboratories and infrastructure.
Organ-on-chip is one of the main research tracks of µFlow Cell, providing microfluidic solutions and devices for long-term culturing and monitoring of organoids, with expertise in space applications.
At MPS World Summit, the µFlow Cell presented MICROLAB, a new VUB Core Facility, located at the VUB Etterbeek Campus, centre of Brussels, Belgium. It is a 300 m² class 1000 cleanroom, equipped with the latest-state-of-the art dry and wet etching equipment for microstructuring of organ-on-chip devices in silicon and glass. It is an open-access facility supporting both the research community and industry in the development of microfluidic devices for medical, pharmaceutical and biotechnological applications.
MICROLAB is a Flanders Chip Competence Centre (FC3) member supporting the European Chips Act.
