Hossein Abolhassani Showcases Salivary Gland Tissue Chip Innovation at Biomedical Engineering Meeting
Wednesday, January 14, 2026
At the Biomedical Engineering Society Annual Meeting in San Diego, Hossein Abolhassani represented the Rochester Microphysiological Systems Network, sharing research from Dr. Lisa DeLouise’s lab on advanced salivary gland tissue chip models. His presentation highlighted efforts to incorporate nerve integration into microphysiological systems to more accurately replicate salivary gland function. This work advances the understanding of interactions between salivary gland tissue and sympathetic nerves and supports the development of more predictive disease and drug-testing models.
