About

Technology blocks like microfluidics, high-density electrodes, biosensors, lens-free imaging and data analytics allow for highly detailed single-cell prediction of human responses. Currently imec is developing MPS systems for the blood-brain-barrier, brain, heart, gut and lung.

Imec is actively looking for partners to further finetune their organ-on-chip models towards specific applications. Please see below, the activities imec could cover for the selected Health 2026 call topics.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-TOOL-03: We can contribute by developing innovative MPS models.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-TOOL-06 - We can support this CSA by offering our expertise on end-user needs and requirements to facilitate the industrial adoption of MPS.

  • HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-DISEASE-11 - We can contribute by developing MPS models of CVD to study sex differences.

Topic

  • DESTINATION 3: HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-DISEASE-11: Understanding of sex and/or gender-specific mechanisms of cardiovascular diseases: determinants, risk factors and pathways
  • DESTINATION 5: HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-TOOL-03: Integrating New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) to advance biomedical research and regulatory testing
  • DESTINATION 5: HORIZON-HLTH-2026-01-TOOL-06: Support to European Research Area (ERA) action on accelerating New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) to advance biomedical research and testing of medicinal products and medical devices
