Researchers at the Wyss Institute at Harvard University have engineered the first-ever “Vagina on a Chip” in the world that replicates the human vaginal tissue microenvironment in vitro, Scientific American reported on Wednesday.

It is composed of the human vaginal epithelium and underlying connective tissue cells and it replicates many of the physiological features of the vagina, according to Harvard.
