Workshop on Platform Technologies for Disease Models

This was an informal event bringing together cross-faculty researchers who are engineering and using cutting-edge platforms for cell-based disease modelling, to improve 3D culture and more closely replicate the human physiological environment.

Attendees shared their research expertise and discussed potential grant applications that would benefit the platform technology research here at Leeds.
