Dr. Agnieszka Zuchowska is an assistant professor at the Chair of Medical Biotechnology at the Warsaw University of Technology. She completed a year and a half postdoctoral fellowship in the AMBER group (University of Twente, the Netherlands). She has documented experience in the field of biological research carried out with the use of microfluidic Cell-on-a-Chip systems, confirmed by 25 publications, 17 of which are from the JCR list, with a total IF = 95.073. Her interests and knowledge include the use of miniature flow devices in modeling organs, their connections, and their use in drug screening (organ-on-chip, multi-organ-on-chip). She is an expert in the field of obtaining, using, and biological analysis of spatial cultures of spheroids under standard and flow conditions.
