'Herd-Immunity-on-a-Chip' recreates viral transmission within a simulated population

A research team led by Professor Sungsu Park of the School of Mechanical Engineering and Professor Byung Mook Weon of the School of Advanced Materials Science and Engineering at Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU) has developed a compact, centimeter-scale microfluidic "Herd-Immunity-on-a-Chip" platform that recreates key features of viral transmission in human societies within a controllable laboratory system.
