Microphysiological Systems

Submission status
Open
Submission deadline

This cross-journal collection on “Microphysiological Systems” is a collaboration between Nature Communications, Communications Biology, Communications Engineering and Scientific Reports. Microphysiological Systems feature the culture of cells, tissues or organoids inside of biomimetic microfluidic devices that aim to recapitulate the circulation and interconnection between different organs found within the human body. These platforms modeling (patho)physiological processes promise to revolutionize basic research as well as drug development and screening, while enabling personalized medicine and reducing our reliance on animal experiments. Within this field, we look forward to seeing submissions on the sub-topics of, but not exclusively on, Engineering Advances, Modeling Biological Phenomena, and Modelling Disease & Drug Testing.

To submit, see the participating journals
Innovative Lab-on-a-Chip Technology: The Future of Biomedical Analysis. Genereative AI.
