Research Projects

3D-bioprinting is an emerging printing technology used in pharmaceutical and medical research. At the institute of printing science and technology, 3D-bioprinting processes including live human and animal cells are developed. The printed tissue models can then be used to test the cells reaction to drugs or mechanical stimulation.

The student has various possibilities regarding testing, characterization, optimization or even automation of the microvalvebased 3D-bioprinting process. This depends on the previous experience and general interest of the student as well as on the available tasks at the time of the stay.

The project is supervised by M.Sc. Anna Fritschen.
