Human Models for Analysis of Pathways (H MAPs) Center

University of Wisconsin Madison

The need for human, organotypic culture models coupled with the requirements of contemporary toxin screening (i.e. reproducibility, high throughput, transferability of data, clear mechanisms of action, defined adverse outcomes) frame an opportunity for a paradigm shift. We propose to establish the Human Models for Analysis of Pathways (H-MAPs) Center to advance the next generation of toxicity testing formats, and to develop a broadly applicable set of tools for toxin screening.
