About us
The ARTORG Center for Biomedical Engineering Research is the University of Bern's transdisciplinary Center of Excellence for medical technology research. Its mission is to tackle unmet clinical needs and envision future challenges in diagnosis, monitoring and treatment to create viable healthcare technology solutions with imagination, agility and purpose. Its projects run from discovery and basic research to clinical translation.
We are an interdisciplinary research group, the Organs-on-Chip Technologies (OOC) Lab of the ARTORG Center for Biomedical Engineering Research at the University of Bern. We focus on the development of advanced in-vitro models by combining engineering, microfluidics, microtechnologies, material sciences and cell biology (see references (1-3)).
Are you interested in cutting-edge in vitro disease modeling? Our team is looking for a motivated and curious scientific collaborator to investigate the effects of malaria on vascular remodeling - bridging malaria biology with next-generation organ modeling technologies.
