About the research

What if a tiny engineered tissue could reveal how a drug behaves in a human liver?

Read the full research overview

Sangeeta Bhatia’s LMRT brings microfabrication, tissue engineering, and nanotechnology to that question. The group builds human liver models for studying drug responses and infections, and develops nanoscale tools for detecting and treating disease. Selected work includes a 3D model of the junction between liver tissue and bile ducts, and electrical stimulation to guide blood-vessel formation in engineered tissues. It is a place where device design meets cell biology, with experiments spanning molecules, cells, and tissue-scale systems.
