A Computational Approach for Biomimetic Design of Liver‐On‐A‐Chip
Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.A biomimetic liver‐on‐a‐chip with antiparallel perfusion was designed using COMSOL‐guided simulation to replicate hepatic acinus transport. Full‐scale modelling revealed diffusion‐dominated, length‐dependent nutrient gradients and low‐shear conditions.
