Collaborators from the University of Virginia visit BEAM researcher Jenny Munson for a little shared lab time. Using a microfluidic chip developed by Rebecca Pompano's lab, the researchers induced interstitial flow in small splices of brain. Eventually, they'll use these devices to study flow in glioblastoma, or brain cancer.
