Abstract
This paper presents a microfluidic device for modelling the biophysics of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The biophysics of PDAC hampers the delivery and uptake of chemotherapeutic drugs to the PDAC cancer cells. Understanding and modelling the biophysical nature of PDAC, its fibrotic stroma, and mechanical stiffness is key to effectively targeting PDAC cells with therapeutics.
