MSC-ITN EUROoC
Interdisciplinary training network for the further development of organ-on-a-chip technology in Europe
Description
EUROoC is creating a trans-European network of application-oriented researchers trained in the development and application of new organ-on-chip (OoC) technology. The field of OoCs is advancing at a breathtaking pace due to its potential impact on drug development and personalized disease treatment. New researchers entering this field must have a multidisciplinary background ranging from biology to microfluidic chip technology.
EUROoC provides the first complete and coherent European training program on OoC by bringing together participants from different disciplines (biology, engineering, medicine, physics, chemistry) in a cross-sector network consisting of 26 project partners (11 universities, 3 non-profit R&D institutes, 4 regulatory experts, 8 companies). EUROoC qualifies the next generation of interdisciplinary scientists for all aspects of OoC development and use, including understanding commercialization pathways and regulatory aspects.
