1. A microscale culture device, comprising:

  • a first microscale chamber dimensioned to maintain biological material under conditions that provide a value of at least one measurable parameter in vitro that is comparable to a value of at least one measurable parameter obtained in vivo, wherein the first microscale chamber comprises a first inlet and a first outlet for flow of fluid;

    a second microscale chamber dimensioned to maintain biological material under conditions that provide a value of at least one measurable parameter in vitro that is comparable to a value of at least one measurable parameter obtained in vivo, wherein the second microscale chamber comprises a second inlet and a second outlet for flow of fluid;

    a microfluidic channel interconnecting the first and second microscale chambers wherein the microfluidic channel is dimensioned to transport the fluid; and

    a pump that is configured to pump a fluid through the first and second microscale chambers; and

    a processor coupled to the device.
