The current research interests focus on miniaturized analytical systems (Lab-on-a-Chip) for monitoring of bioanalytes. Emphasis is now also being laid on the development of polymeric chips for human cell culture (Cell-on-a-Chip) in unique, in vivo-mimicking microenvironment where studies of cellular growth and responses to external factors are conducted for drug screening and toxicology applications. The use of new tools and research conducted on multicellular spheroids (cancer tumor model) will help to broaden existing knowledge of biology, biochemistry and cellular engineering. Developed Cell-on-a-chip microsystems are useful bioanalytical tools platforms used to develop an individual therapeutic plan (drug selection, dose and frequency of administration) for the treatment of i.a. cancers. Such a device allows you to perform tests on cells taken from the patient and can be used in personalized medicine based on theranostic approach, where it is important to give the appropriate drug, at the optimal dose, to the right person at the right time.
