Our research projects

We have innovated

in 50+ EU and national projects

Enhanced imaging flow cytometry

imaging flow cytometry

single-cell analysis

Characterization of the cellular heterogeneity of complex biological systems requires high-throughput screening techniques.

Expected result

Fluidic control systems for ultra-low-flux and ultra-high-throughput flow cytometry.

4D printing new additive manufacturing technologies

4D printing 

additive manufacturing

Using shape-changing materials, that respond to stimuli, makes it easier to create complex structures, which is important to fully unlock their potential in fields like medicine and biomedical devices.

Expected result

Developing 4D printing voxel device that can deposit multi-material polymerizable microdroplets with variable spatial resolutions.

Cell interaction in next generation 3D tissue models

3D tissue

artificial cells

cell behavior

Creating 3D tissue models with programmable artificial cells to study realistic cell behavior and drug delivery while reducing animal testing.

Expected result

Developing a microfluidic flow control platform that enables continuous, sterile, automated cell perfusion and live microscopy monitoring of 3D tissue models without using an incubator or disconnecting the culture chip.

Biomaterial engineering for organ repair

Biomaterials engineering

human tissue repair

Engineering of advanced biomaterial methods to create vascularized, transplantable human tissues using nanobot-assisted self-assembly and microfluidics.

Expected result

Generating a functional artificial hippocampal tissue with an embedded vascular network and functional blood-brain barrier, demonstrating integration with native tissues for organ repair.
