SoCal Stem Cell Seminar Series

Catherine Yeung, PharmD, PhD, MPH, will present Bioengineering a Kidney Chip for Better, Safer, and Faster Drug Development on August 8, 2024, at Sanford Consortium for Regenerative Medicine.

Yeung Brief Bio

Dr. Yeung’s research includes both basic science and translational studies, and spans from the determination of molecular mechanisms of altered drug metabolism using 3-dimensional cell culture techniques to the evaluation of the effect of drugs and nutritional supplements on health outcomes in patients receiving hemodialysis. She is a key investigator in the development of a “kidney on a chip” microphysiological system that can be used in preclinical drug development.
