Interests

Prof Martin Knight is a bioengineer developing and using organ-on-a-chip technology to study human health and disease and to streamline the drug development pipeline. Much of his work examines role of mechanobiology and how this can be incorporated into in vitro models to more accurately predict in vivo behaviour. This includes work on osteoarthritis, inflammation, cardiovascular disease, cancer and kidney disease. He has secured over £12M of recent research funding, primarily in the area of organ-on-a-chip, including £7M funding for an EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Next Generation Organ-on-a-chip technology.

Prof Knight is the co-Director of the Queen Mary Centre for Predictive in vitro Models, and co-directed the UK Organ-on-a-chip Technologies Network. He is active in helping to shape policy around the implementation of organ-chip technology, working with industry and other key stake holders including UK Government.
