Organ-on-chip benchtop system for fast and reliable human-relevant data
Looking for a faster, more reliable way to generate human-relevant preclinical data? In this SelectScience interview, Lorna Ewart, CSO at Emulate, presents the AVA™ Emulation System, the first benchtop organ-on-chip platform combining automated microfluidics with high-resolution imaging. Discover how the AVA™ Emulation System enhances lab efficiency, enables streamlined downstream analysis, supports regulatory compliance, and drives the move toward more predictive, ethical, non-animal models in preclinical research.
This video was filmed at SLAS 2026, where Emulate's AVA™ Emulation System won a 2026 SLAS New Product Award.
