Master Projects

Introduction | We are excited to present a unique opportunity to ambitious young minds in the Biomedical Engineering department. As part of a cutting-edge project in the fascinating field of biotechnology and AI, we are seeking a motivated collaborator who is ready t...

Introduction | Spinal cord injury-on—a-chip Spinal cord injury is an untreatable issue that affects millions of people every year all around the world. It results in partial or integral loss of mobility, confining a person suffering from it to live on a wheelchair or bedridde...

Introduction | dynamic surface patterns It is well-known that cells respond to the patterns on surfaces by adapting via differentiation. Cell-biomaterial interaction has long been studied using static surface patterns. However static patterns do not recapitulate the physiologi...

Introduction | modeling atherosclerosis The fluid wall shear stress (WSS) driven by pulsatile blood flow is a determining factor for the development of atherosclerosis.1 In physiological circumstances, WSS acts simultaneously on endothelial cells (EC) lining blood vessels modu...

Introduction | the artificial cells Communication between cells is an important parameter within nature such as quorum sensing in bacteria. Quorum sensing is the regulation of gene expression in response to fluctuations in cell-population density. In order to better understand...
