MIVO® – Workshop
Laboratory workshop for researchers, scientists and innovators
Come and join the future of Microphysiological Systems.
We will take you into 3D cell models and fluidic-dynamic tissue culture by using the MIVO® platform.
During the Workshop, you will get an overview of fluid-dynamics and organ-on-chips, 3D cell/tissue models while practically using the MIVO® platform.
Interactive lectures and hands-on sessions led by our scientists will help you learn how to design and carry out your experiments using MIVO® technology.
During the hands-on training, you will use our pumping system, set up different MIVO® configurations and manage 3D models inside the device.
At the end of the Workshop, you will receive a Certificate of Participation which demonstrates your knowledge of MIVO® technology and 3D cell culture models.
