Presentation

The France 2030 research programme – Organs and Organoids on Chips (PEPR MED-OOC) is pleased to announce the second edition of its annual scientific meeting, to be held on Monday, 1 June and Tuesday, 2 June 2026, at the 1894 event space of Lille’s Pasteur Institute.

This event will bring together stakeholders involved in the programme, as well as those wishing to contribute to it. It will provide a forum for discussion on scientific advances, strategic objectives, and projects supported by PEPR MED-OOC. The ambition is also to foster collaborations around its three major focus areas:

🔹 Clinical twins of patients for personalized medicine
🔹 Multifunctional and multi-organ O&OoC for new therapies
🔹 Sensing and actuating O&OoC for digital health approaches

Episode 1 – Organs on chip
Two months ago, in Grenoble, the MED-OOC PEPR was inaugurated, a France2030 research program focusing on organs and organoids on chips. 🧪 This first episode is dedicated to organs-on-chips (OOC): miniature devices capable of reproducing certain functions of a human organ. They pave the way for more accurate and ethical biomedical research, serving the medicine of tomorrow.
