The development of new medicine is problematic because laboratories cannot replicate the human body's environment, making it difficult to determine how patients will respond to treatment. At TEDxBoston, Geraldine Hamilton demonstrates how scientists can implant living human cells into microchips that mimic the body's conditions. These "organs-on-a-chip" can be used to study drug toxicity, identify potential new therapies, and could lead to safer clinical trials.
