Researchers at Harvard’s Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering have developed “lung-on-a-chip” technology that mimics the effects of pulmonary edema, a medical condition caused by fluid build up in the lung’s air sacs. The study was led by Dan Huh, in collaboration with Wyss Postdoctoral Fellow Daniel Leslie; and a multidisciplinary team including Geraldine Hamilton, HMS senior staff scientist; Wyss Founding Director Donald Ingber; and Ben Matthews, HMS assistant professor of pediatrics at Boston Children’s Hospital.
