Description:
Article Many tissues can be grown as 3D spheroid models in hanging drops of media. Here, Frey et al . develop a microfluidic, interconnected hanging drop network to facilitate inter-drop communication, and demonstrate that pro-drug conversion by liver spheroids can limit the growth of cancer spheroids in adjacent drops.
