Interactions between organs are essential to ensure proper physiological functioning of the human body. Understanding these interactions is particular in the new drugs design. An ""organ on a chip"" is a microfluidic system in which you can model the environment and intercellular interactions that occur in a specific tissue or organ. Current methods of assessing the effectiveness of medicines are based on a study of their effects on individual/target organ models, disregarding their effects on models of other organs. The work will include design a novel integrative approach for inter-organ communication research, the aim of which will be to better understand the phenomena associated with it, namely: inter-organism communication under ""healthy"" conditions and the evaluation of the toxicity of selected drugs to target and adjacent organs.
