The EUROoCS 2022 conference, with more than 500 attendants, was a success thanks to many people who made this possible.
The WTC in Grenoble was a beehive of scientists, companies and regulators, flying in and out of the different rooms to listen to interesting talks, discuss results on the posters and enjoy the delicious French food. The dinner in the Stade des Alpes was a very special experience.
During these two days it really felt like one big international family, with members of various ages working towards the same goal: to move the Organ-on-Chip technology forward.
Congratulations to all 20 prize winners, in particular our hDMT researchers, who won Next Generation Travel Awards, Best Poster Awards and Best Oral presentation Awards.
Proud of the high quality, motivation and enthusiasm of the young scientists in the Organ-on-Chip field in Europe. Let’s keep this good spirit and continue to build our community, to contribute to the mission of EUROoCS: To enable Organ-on-Chip technology to facilitate life science research, promote human health and improve quality-of-life for all patients!
