2026 Abstracts

Call for Abstracts

Abstract submissions for the 2026 MPS World Summit are closed.


Microphysiological System (MPS): cell culture systems replicating (patho-) physiology through engineered organ architecture and functionality. This includes especially 3D-(co-)cultures such as organoids, organ-on-chip models, and multi-organ models, as well as the technologies to engineer and analyze these systems.

Abstracts are invited on the topic of new developments in MPS and applications of MPS, which are divided into four themes.

  • Theme 1: Engineering the Next Generation of MPS
  • Theme 2: Modeling Human Biology with MPS
  • Theme 3: MPS in Product Development
  • Theme 4: Standards, Regulatory Pathways, and Global Adoption
