11th Annual 3D Tissue Models Summit

11th Annual 3D Tissue Models Summit is organized by Hanson Wade and will be held from Apr 28 - 30, 2026 at Hyatt Regency Boston, One Ave de Lafayette, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.

Description:
Regulatory and governmental momentum is forcing change, fast:

• The Senate have recently cleared the FDA Modernization Act 3.0
• The FDA have developed a roadmap that’s abandoning animal testing for mAbs
• NIH have closed the door on animal-only grants
• The UK join the plan to phase out animal testing, announced by the Science Minster Lord Vallance

Meanwhile, your pipelines are chasing novel targets that in vivo models can't predict.

The 11th 3D Tissue Models Summit is where the industry comes to solve this. As the only industry-led forum dedicated to advancing organoids, organ-on-chip, and MPS, you'll connect with scientists from AbbVie, Novartis, Vertex, and many more who are validating these models, securing regulatory buy-in, and making them work at scale. The shift is happening, so make sure your organization is ready.
