The IQ MPS is a collaboration of pharmaceutical and biotechnologies companies created as an Affiliate within the International Consortium for Innovation and Quality in Pharmaceutical Development (also known as the IQ Consortium) to provide a venue for appropriate cross-pharma collaboration and data sharing to facilitate the industry implementation and qualification of MPS models. The IQ Consortium is a leading science-focused, not-for-profit organization with a mission of advancing science and technology to augment the capability of member companies to develop transformational solutions that benefit patients, regulators and the broader R&D community (https://iqconsortium.org).

The IQ MPS Affiliate is a not-for-profit organization devoted to raising awareness, advancing the science, and supporting the implementation of microphysiological systems in drug discovery. As such, the IQ MPS Affiliate does not collectively endorse microphysiological systems developers or their products. Presentations to the IQ MPS Affiliate are for awareness and information purposes. Individual IQ MPS Affiliate member organizations may engage external organizations as they see fit.
