The PETA International Science Consortium Ltd. named Patrícia Zoio, a Ph.D. student from the NOVA University of Lisbon, the winner of its Early-Career Scientist Award to attend the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre Summer School program on non-animal tests. Zoio, who’s developing a skin-on-a-chip model that could replace the use of animals in long-term skin tests, will attend lectures and interactive sessions and visit a laboratory dedicated to developing alternatives to animal tests.
