Human primary cells in drug development
Find out how primary cells can help you with accelerating your research towards an approved new medicine.
It takes roughly 14 years to take a substance from preclinical stage to the bedside. To generate all of the knowledge needed to register a new compound, you need many experiments and different assays. Discover how primary cells might help you with this.
This poster will cover:
- Potential of human cell-based assays
- Primary cells versus cell lines
- Cardiovascular cytotoxicity
- Dermal cytotoxicity
- 3D cell culture techniques
