Develop microfluidics for at-home blood testing
Collaborating with a dynamic startup, you will work on designing, manufacturing, and testing microfluidic devices to quantify biomolecules associated with chronic inflammation, heart attacks, and tropical diseases.
Are you passionate about making a real impact on patient care? Do you thrive in interdisciplinary environments, seeking collaborative opportunities with startups? Look no further – the Laboratory for Biosensing and Bioelectronics (LBB) is recruiting talented and enthusiastic individuals for a groundbreaking student project focused on developing microfluidics for at-home medical blood tests.
At-home blood testing is poised to revolutionize patient care, offering a fast, affordable, and regular means of obtaining critical health information. This innovation is particularly crucial for chronically ill patients and those in low-income countries. At LBB, we have successfully developed an electrochemical method for the accurate quantification of various biomarkers associated with chronic inflammation, heart attacks, and tropical diseases.
To translate this technology into at-home tests, we need to embed our methods in an affordable microfluidic device. As a student on this project, you will be involved in designing, manufacturing, and testing microfluidic devices capable of quantifying biomolecules in individuals' blood.
- **Interdisciplinary Nature:** This project brings together expertise from various fields, offering a rich and diverse learning experience.
- **Collaboration with a Startup:** Work closely with a dynamic startup, contributing to the intersection of academia and industry.
- **Direct Application and Real Impact:** Your efforts will directly contribute to the development of at-home medical blood tests, making a tangible impact on patient care and healthcare accessibility.
- **Team Collaboration:** Join a large dynamic team where collaboration with fellow students is encouraged, fostering a supportive and stimulating work environment.
Are you ready to take on a challenge? While preference will be given to longer projects such as a master thesis don't hesitate to apply for other project formats. We welcome applicants from diverse fields such as engineering (electrical, mechanical, chemical or biomedical) materials science, physics, chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, health science, biology or similar. Your study background is not critical – your passion for innovation and impact is what matters most!
