The present invention provides for an engineered three dimensional pulmonary model tissue culture which is free of any artificial scaffold. Three dimensional models of healthy and diseased lung tissue models are available. The invention also relates to kits comprising the model tissue and methods for screening compounds therewith. The invention is applicable in medical and scientific research, for testing compounds for their effect on lung tissue, for screening, testing and/or evaluating drugs, and in certain cases in diagnostics of lung diseases.
