How to build your multiorgan-on-a-chip system: a case studyReviews"""As a carnivore, when reading this text, I wondered if lessons learned from current attempts to “grow meat could be applied to some of the work herein. (See, for example, “The race to make cell grown meats mainstream, Popular Mechanics, July/August 2020, pp. 44–51.) As a (retired) design instructor, having had the experience of having had students working on organ-on-a-chip devices for their senior projects, I find this book to be very up to date and a good overview of the field. As a reviewer, I recommend this text for use in introducing new investigators and entrepreneurs to this field of applied work in physiology and toxicology."" --IEEE EMBS PULSE Magazine" As a carnivore, when reading this text, I wondered if lessons learned from current attempts to grow meat could be applied to some of the work herein.

She has a profound understanding of inhalation toxicology and computational modeling of smoking-related diseases, lung cancer, COPD, and CVD. Dr. Hoeng holds a BSc in biology, MSc in bioinformatics, PhD in protein crystallography, and an executive MBA. David Bovard is a scientist at Philip Morris with expertise in the field of organotypic models and microfluidic systems. Before this role, David led the development of a company-owned lung/liver-on-a-chip to assess the toxicity of aerosols accurately. Dr. Peitsch is Chief Scientific Officer and VP of Research and Development at Philip Morris International. He has extensive experience in tobacco harm reduction, smoking-related diseases, systems biology, toxicology, bioinformatics, chemoinformatics, high-performance computing, and knowledge management. An innovation-focused results-driven biomedical research leader, Dr. Peitsch has many years of experience managing large multi-cultural teams across several countries. He holds several patents related to proteomics, genomics, and computer science and has published over 200 book chapters, technical reports, and articles in top ranking scientific journals (cited over 22000 times). He has done pioneering work in the area of molecular modeling, cell biology, computational text analytics, and systems biology/toxicology and is a founder of several initiatives, including two start-up companies, the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics, and the [BC]2 conference (http://www.bc2.ch). He is Chairman of the Executive Board of the Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics and an active scientific advisor to several academic and commercial entities. He has also served on the Swiss National Research Council. Dr. Peitsch is a Computerworld Honors Laureate and a recipient of several awards including the New England Business and Technology Award and the United Devices Grid Visionary Award. He holds a BSc in life sciences, MSc in physical chemistry, and PhD in biochemistry. He is also Professor of Bioinformatics at the University of Basel.
