3⃣ @DrTimHopkins, et al. developed a human vascularized synovium-on-a-chip that can improve the understanding of conditions like rheumatoid #arthritis (#RA). In @IOPscience: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…

Huge news for #OrgandonChip research! @QMULSEMS awarded £7 million by @EPSRCCDT to train the next generation of scientists & bioengineers in this game-changing technology. This could revolutionise drug discovery & improve healthcare for all! #EPSRC_CDTs buff.ly/4cbF9TA

Absolutely this from @DrAmirKhanGP Now 1m+ waiting on trauma & orthopedic surgery waiting lists for very effective operations like hip & knee replacement that can improve people's quality of life. Instead many are experiencing a decline in both their physical & mental health.

The chip is able to reproduce many of the key features of native human synovium, suggesting that it has immense potential to help researchers understand disease mechanisms and identify and test new therapies. Read more about this study on our website qmul.ac.uk/media/news/202…

Today is #WorldArthritisDay, a day to raise awareness of this group of debilitating diseases that affect over 10 million people in the UK alone. And what better way to celebrate than with news of a promising new research, published in @IOPPublishing? iopscience.iop.org/article/10.108…
