Im Projekt entsteht ein neuartiges, smartes Glaukom-Implantat, das beide Hauptprobleme aktueller Lösungen adressiert: Vermeidung von Vernarbungen und individuell einstellbare Druckregulation.

Building 3D vascularised organs remains the major unsolved challenge to be overcome in biofabrication and tissue engineering. Establishing blood vessels capable of efficient transport of gas, nutrients, and metabolites to and from cells is a prerequisite for the survival of tissue constructs, both in vitro and when transplanted in vivo. 

The STRIM Training Network “Scientific Training for Post-Translational Modification Detection in Cancer Screening” is a consortium of world leaders in bioinformatics and biomarkers discovery, bioreceptor selection and design, nanofabrication and electrode production, biosensor development, cancer research, and health technology assessment from 6 universities, 2 companies, 3 medical research centers and 2 hospitals. STRIM announces 13 positions for Doctoral Candidates (DCs), who will have access to state-of-the-art equipment and will obtain a unique scientific, technical, industrial, and entrepreneurial training.
