3D Microfluidic Platform for in vitro Hematopoietic Stem Cell (HSC) Culture
SBC: Physical Optics Corporation Topic: CBD10103Poor drug candidates are often identified late in the drug development process (e.g., in the preclinical and clinical phases) and contribute significantly to the high cost and low yield of drug discovery. As a result, new tools are needed to accelerate the assessment of drug candidate toxicity earlier in the drug development process. To address this Chemical/Bio Defense (CBD) need, Physical Optics ...
