Miniature reproductions of the human retina for the development of personalized treatments for eye diseases. Built with retinal cells, they recreate key structural, biochemical, and functional aspects of the human retina under dynamic perfusion. Our Retinas-on-Chip can reproduce both, physiological and pathological tissue and allow a fast, massive and low-cost test of personalized therapies.
