Funded by the EU, EUROoC creates a trans-European network of application-oriented researchers fully trained in development and application of the emerging Organ-on-a-chip (OoC) technology. EUROoC offers the first complete and coherent European training program on OoC by gathering participants from various disciplines (Biology, Engineering, Medicine, Physics, Chemistry) in a multi-sectoral network composed of companies, regulation entities, and academic institutions. The training will qualify the next generation of interdisciplinary scientists for all aspects of OoC development and utilisation, including understanding of commercialisation pathways, and regulatory aspects.

The field of OoCs is advancing at breath taking pace due to its potential impact in drug development and personalised treatments of disease.

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 812954.
