Research topic
The project proposed is looking for the development of a continuous manufacturing platform for nanomedicines based on the use of 3D printed microfluidic chips. It is a multidisciplinary project that aims to bridge the gap between nanomedicines and clinical practise. A range of skills will be acquired working in this project from material science and engineering including 3D printing, flow dynamics and modelling to formulation development and characterisation techniques (HPCL, PCS, DLS, NIR, SEM, TEM,....) and lastly, in vitro cell culture skills. Along with the scientific objectives, the trainee will be prompted to enroll in enterpreneurial activites, as well as other social tasks to diffuse science to all type of public. Hence, it is expected that a wide range of skills are acquired during the training programme.
