A graphic with a quote and modified figure from the linked Lab on a Chip paper, “Lymphatics-on-a-chip microphysiological system: engineering lymphatic structure and function in vitro” (doi: 10.1039/D5LC00875A). It features part of Figure 6 (“Schematic illustrating a multilevel validation framework for human lymphatics-on-a-chip systems, encompassing molecular, structural, functional, and clinical benchmarks.”) and a quote attributed to authors Yansong Peng and Esak Lee of Cornell University: “These microphysiological systems offer unprecedented potential to accurately replicate human lymphatic physiology and disease, complementing and even replacing traditional animal models, which suffer from translational limitations and rising regulatory and ethical scrutiny.”
