3D Cell Culture: Overcoming the Operational Barriers to NAMs-ready Research

As 3D models become increasingly important in NAMs-ready research, many labs still face practical barriers to adoption. This whitepaper outlines the key operational challenges that can limit progress—and offers guidance for building more reliable, repeatable, and scalable workflows.

What's included in the whitepaper:

• Insights into the biggest barriers to 3D cell culture adoption
• Guidance on managing complexity without compromising biology.
• Strategies to improve throughput, reproducibility, and standardization
• Considerations for building a stronger business case for 3D model infrastructure
• An overview of 3D NAMs products and supporting resources

Adopting human-relevant models requires more than selecting the right technology. Use our NAMs Readiness Checklist to evaluate reproducibility, scalability, throughput, and workflow readiness, helping you identify potential barriers before they impact your results.
