A new CEN Workshop is being established to build upon the innovative outcomes of the R&I project BiSCUIT, funded under the Horizon Europe programme. The project focuses on the validation of a dynamic and biomimetic blood-brain barrier model, integrating sensing features to allow a real-time evaluation of barrier formation and integrity maintenance.  

On the 2nd of March, the CEN and CENELEC Focus Group Organ-on-Chip (FGOoC) had its Kick-off Meeting. More than 80 stakeholders participated and discussed the potential for standardization and the way forward in this innovative field of biomedical technology.

In April, the online workshop ‘Organ on Chip: Towards Standardization’ took place as the 2021 edition of Putting Science into Standards (PSIS) in collaboration with the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission.
