10-05-2024 Image analysis of collective cell migration in epithalial and cancer cells
Key characteristics of wound healing and cancer metastasis are migration of multiple cells with more or less degree of coordination (collective migration). In this project, we collected movies (time-lapses) of various types of cancer migrating on substrates of different mechanical properties. We are looking for students to develop and apply image analysis pipelines to analyze the time lapses. Analysis is done using a combination of computational tool that involve ImageJ (image registration, drift correction), MatLab (particle image velocimetry) and Phyton (statistical analysis and plotting). The student will have the opportunity to aid high-impact science in a dynamic and international environment.

10-05-2024 Engineering devices to study the mechanics of cell
We are looking for one dedicated student to work on a mechanobiology project aiming to investigate short-range cellular forces involved in regulating cell mechanics. The student will fabricate devices using cutting edge microfabrication tools and will aid a PhD student in performing microscopy experiments involving epithelial and cancer cells. The student will have the opportunity to aid high-impact science while learning cutting-edge bioengineering technologies in a dynamic and international environment. Dedication and passion for science and biomedical engineering are the main requisites.
