    - the need for better models to improve translation from *in vitro* to* in vivo*
    - the relevance of 3D cellular models to kidney disease modelling and drug induced toxicity prediction
- an overview of Evotec's 3D *in vitro* platforms 
    - glomerulus-on-a-chip to study kidney disease
    - kidney organoids to study polycystic kidney disease
    - organ microtissues to predict drug-induced toxicity
- interviews with experts Dr Christodoulos Xinaris, Dr Reiner Class, Dr Magali Ferro and Dr Stephanie Ryder
