This grant, offered by the Human Islet Research Network (HIRN), is for the purpose of supporting new applications to participate in the Consortium on Human Islet Biomimetics (CHIB). The core aim is to facilitate the development of a human islet microphysiological system, or niche. This advanced system will integrate key biological and physical elements, such as cells, cytoarchitecture, matrix, and various factors, to create a comprehensive model of human islets. CHIB is a vital part of HIRN’s broader goal to accelerate research by providing sophisticated in vitro tools for studying islet function and pathology.
