Organ‑on‑a‑Chip Model Decodes Inflammatory Bowel Disease to Reveal Personalized Treatment Pathways

Inflammatory bowel disease remains difficult to study because its complex immune and microbial interactions cannot be replicated in traditional lab models. Researchers at Harvard University’s Wyss Institute have developed a microfluidic “gut‑on‑a‑chip” system that recreates the dynamic environment of the
