Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic
