A well-controlled microenvironment is paramount for reproducible biomolecular studies. Organs-on-chips are in-vitro cell culture systems that employ microfluidic and biomaterial engineering towards that goal. They combine the advantages of animal models (physiological environment) with those of plastic-dish culture (human cells), and thereby hold exceptional promise in unraveling the biological processes that underlie health and disease. Yet control over the biochemical environment remains poor. With CHIPzophrenia, I propose to develop a new generation of organ-chip, one that features feedback-enabled control of the biochemical environment. I aim to realize dynamic and well-controlled…
