Chicago, Illinois -

Meet Positives, the country’s #1 dating website for people with herpes, is highlighting the recent development of a prototype herpes research tool that promises to speed up the development of human herpes treatments.

Dr. Jia Zhu, an immunologist, and virologist, at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center in Seattle, is leading a team of researchers that has developed a novel “skin-on-chip” platform. The experimental device in question is a small square constructed out of plexiglass in which human skin cells can be seeded and grown. The cells can then be infected with a dose of the herpes simplex viruses and the results can be extensively studied. The device is currently being prepared for screening antiviral compounds that can boost human herpes treatments.

The device has been under development and testing for over 5 years. Dr. Zhu’s broader vision for the device includes customizing herpes therapies for each patient by seeding the device with cells from a single individual. In the press release issued by Hutch News, Dr. Zhu talks about its potential by saying, “We all have different cells. We can get them and grow them. We can make different chips and we can compare them. It’s personalized medical research.”

Meet Positives founder and CEO, Jack Lombardi commented on Dr. Zhu’s work by saying, “We always welcome any update from the exciting world of science and technology that offers even the slightest glimmer of hope to those living with these life-changing afflictions. The news out of Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center is another scientific milestone that has us extremely excited about the future of herpes treatments. The creation of the experimental device and Dr. Zhu’s ideas on creating personalized herpes treatments are commendable. We can’t wait to see how this technology affects herpes research going forward.”

As one of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing herpes dating platforms, Meet Positives offers hope to more than 40 million people, or 1 in 5 American adults, who live with genital herpes, the most prevalent sexually transmitted infection in recent years.
