Multistakeholder Kick-off Workshop

Yesterday, our CEO Paola Occhetta participated in the Multistakeholder Kick-off Workshop organized by Sonja Beken of the European Medicines Agency 3Rs Working Party.

Scientific and regulatory discussions were conducted regarding the qualification of MicroPhysiological Systems (MPS), including Organ-on-Chip (OoC) models, for specific contexts of use in the pharmaceutical area.

Paola Occhetta provided a detailed overview of our uHeart model as a preclinical tool for safety pharmacology testing.

The workshop was fascinating, uniting #MPS developers, regulatory bodies, and preclinical adopters with the aim of defining a common path towards qualification of new in vitro methods (including #OoC) to be adopted in the drug discovery and development process.

We appreciate the invitation and the consideration of BiomimX® Srl as a potential key player in this field.

Let’s continue to pursue this goal.
