🎓 Hora est ! There is a new Doctor in town, as this past Wednesday Marième Gueye brilliantly defended her PhD Thesis titled "Biofabrication Strategies for Making Hematopoietic Tissues". Huge congrats to Marième for this fantastic achievement! Since 2021, as part of the European Research Council (ERC) VOLUME-BIO project (grant agreement 949806), Marième developed different types of organoids for the co-culture, preservation and expansion of hematopoietic stem cells, the cells

Technologies to help us build a healthier future: bioprinting and our lab were on-air on the Dutch broadcaster NPO2 yesterday! Check out our contribution to the show "Jekels jacht naar het eeuwinge leven" on NPO start: https://npo.nl/start/serie/jekels-jacht-naar-het-eeuwige-leven/afleveringen/seizoen-1 It was great fun to meet science communicator Diederik Jekel on his quest, and to explain our work, showcasing our #volumetric bioprinting tech to print cell-laden tissues in

I am deeply humbled and honored for receiving support from the @European Research Council Consolidator Grant, to further our research on #bioprinting. Let’s turn on the spotlight on stem cells, pancreatic islets and their specialized blood vessels! Lab-made biological tissues have potential as tools for biomedical research, and finally as grafts for regenerative medicine. However, to meet this promise, our society needs better ways to understand human biology, and therefore t

Time to change our viewpoint on how #3Dprinting and #bioprinting are performed! O ur work on Generative, Adaptive and Context-Aware...

📢 PhD position alert! We are looking for a PhD with an engineering and biofabrication related background to build advanced blood vessel!...
