š©āš¬ Suruchi Poddar, PhD
Iām a scientist passionate about advancing ethical and sustainable biomedical research. My focus lies in organoid research and New Approach Methodologies (NAMs), with a strong interest in developing alternative in vitro platforms that reduceāand ultimately replaceāthe need for animal testing. While I acknowledge the historical significance of animal models, I firmly believe that innovations such as microphysiological systems, organoids, and 3D bioprinting offer more humane, reproducible, and robust approaches for toxicological assessments and drug discovery.
š As volunteer at WORC.Community I:
- Curate and share updates on the latest publications and breakthroughs in organoids and NAMs
- Help boost the visibility of researchers and their work
- Foster dialogue on advancing alternatives to animal testing
š” I am committed to promoting knowledge-sharing, ethical innovation, and collaboration to amplify the collective impact of the 3D biology and NAMs community.
As much as I love doing research, I feel great aversion doing it at the cost of countless animals being sacrificed. Being a passionate advocate of ethical and sustainable research practices, I am fascinated by the idea of using alternative in vitro platforms to reduce and ultimately replace animal testing methodologies. While I acknowledge the historical significance of animal testing and the complex physiological interactions that they provide, I firmly believe that the rapid advancements in the field of biomedical research and development of in vitro testing platforms such as microphysiological systems, organoids, 3D bioprinting offer a more humane and robust approach for toxicological assessments.
*I am open to scientist positions across the globe*
