The MPS World Summit, organized by the Johns Hopkins Center for Alternatives to Animal Testing (CAAT) and EUROoCS, with the support of more than forty organizations, is proud to present the Microphysiological Systems World Summit.
The 2022 inaugural summit in New Orleans brought together a global audience and established the first steps in creating a roadmap for MPS technologies. The summit in New Orleans also served to officially establish the International MPS Society (IMPSS).
With the support of 54 sponsors and 665 attendees (450 of which attended in person), the 2022 summit was a successful start to facilitating stakeholder communication as well as providing networking opportunities for young scientists, researchers, and industry leaders in the MPS field.
The 2023 meeting will begin on Monday, June 26, 2023 with satellite events, networking opportunities, and the start of a week of scientific programs. This year’s summit will once again feature an educational workshop as well for those who are interested in hands-on training in the newest MPS technology. The scientific sessions will include varying formats: workshops, roundtables, and scientific symposia.
