Rochester Microphysiological Systems Network (MPS Network)

The Rochester Microphysiological Systems Network (MPS Network) is a graduate student-focused organization at the University of Rochester dedicated to fostering the intellectual and professional development of young professionals in the rapidly evolving field of microphysiological systems (MPS). We provide a supportive community for students, technicians, and researchers exploring organ models, tissue chips, and microfluidic systems – technologies increasingly vital for accelerating drug development, understanding disease, and reducing reliance on animal testing. Through monthly meetings, peer-to-peer support, and professional development opportunities, the MPS Network empowers its members to excel in this interdisciplinary area of biomedical engineering.
