Abstract

In article number 1702959, Attilio Marino, Omar Tricinci, Edoardo Sinibaldi, Gianni Ciofani, and co-workers fabricate a real-scale, biohybrid and biomimetic microfluidic model of the blood-brain barrier through two-photon lithography and characterize it in vitro. This image represents the concept of the approach, from the design to the cell testing, with a merging of computer-assisted drawing, scanning electron imaging, and confocal imaging of the device.
