Dynamic42 Academy
Learn the skills to integrate organ-on-chip technology into your lab work with the Dynamic42 Academy. Our course offers hands-on trainings in the lab using Dynamic42 technology that are complemented by shorter theoretical sessions by leading experts in the organ-on-chip field. During the course, you will have the opportunity to speak to our lab scientists about the specific models and applications and learn how to best implement them in your lab. Our main goal is it to ensure that all participants can apply the technology in their lab after mastering the course. We do this by strictly limiting the number of participants per course, provision of in depth protocols and leaving room for your specific questions and lots of hands-on time with the equipment.

Learn about organ-on-chip in the heart of Germany
The Dynamic42 Academy takes place at our facilities in Jena, Germany – an internationally renowned location of science in the middle of Germany.
The Academy is conceived particularly for scientists working in the fields of pharmacology, toxicology, oncology, pulmonology, pneumology, drug development and experimental virology. Our goal is to make the rapidly developing organ-on-chip technology quickly and efficiently accessible to broad areas of research and development. In the evenings, the scientific program will be completed with fun get-together to socials and exchange ideas.
94% of participants say the academy met their expectations.
100% of participants can imagine using the technique in their own lab after completing the course.
