Microfluidics : the fur-free way towards personalised medicine in cancer therapy (2016)
Journal Article
Dawson, A., Greenman, J., Bower, R., & Green, V. (in press). Microfluidics : the fur-free way towards personalised medicine in cancer therapy. Drug target review, 3(1), 12-17

Microfluidic technology has great potential for complementing and, in some instances, replacing the use of animal models in the testing of medicines and in developing personalised treatments for cancer patients. The maintenance of tissue in an in viv... Read More about Microfluidics : the fur-free way towards personalised medicine in cancer therapy.
