Yesterday, the film Future Science was screened at the cinema of the Zeiss Planetarium in Berlin. Renowned researchers provided an overview of their scientific work in the fields of organoid models, organ-on-a-chip models, in vitro disease models, as well as 3D printing techniques, and assessed the current situation regarding the use and acceptance of these new methods.
