IBEC contributes to multi-disciplinary efforts to understand the brain and improve neurological healthcare
The Group of Pau Gorostiza at IBEC participates in the “Emerging Cluster of the Human Brain! (CECH) RIS3CAT Initiative, in which research institutes and industry work together to achieve an integrative and multi-level understanding of the human brain.
PhD Position in the Synthetic Morphogenesis group (IBEC, TU/e)
Application Deadline: 15/12/2020
Ref: PH- VC
The Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) in collaboration with the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e, Eindhoven – Netherlands) are seeing an ambitious PhD Candidate to investigate the morphogenesis of living tissues from the computational perspective. The successful candidate will carry out computational research with the Synthetic Morphogenesis group under the supervision of Dr Vito Conte across both institutions at the interface between Biology, Physics, Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Sciences. This multidisciplinary doctoral research will be carried out in collaboration with Dr Jose Muñoz at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC, Barcelona – Spain) and will be part of greater efforts aiming at establishing a new Platform for the Live-Quantification of Cell and Tissue Mechanics across the IBEC and the TU/e.
L’Edison de la medicina visita l’IBEC
L’Institut de Bioenginyeria de Catalunya (IBEC) convida a Robert Langer, i a altres ponents nacionals i internacionals, al seu simposi anual per parlar sobre com la bioenginyeria pot marcar el futur de la medicina de precisió. Langer, Professor de l’Institut Tecnològic de Massachusetts (MIT) i director del seu laboratori en enginyeria biomèdica, és considerat el pare de l’alliberament intel·ligent de fàrmacs, l’enginyer més citat del món però, sobretot, un pioner global amb prop d’un miler de patents i promotor de desenes d’empreses amb gran projecció, el que li ha valgut el sobrenom de “l’Edison de la Ciència”
Forces elèctriques per caracteritzar futurs dispositius electrònics biocompatibles
Una col·laboració conjunta entre l’Institut de Bioenginyeria de Catalunya (IBEC), l’Institut de Ciència de Materials de Barcelona (ICMAC) i la Universitat de Manchester ha aconseguit realitzar mapes de les propietats elèctriques de la interfície entre biosensors orgànics i medis electròlits a la nanoescala mesurant les forces elèctriques locals.
Predoctoral Researcher at the Nanoprobes & Nanoswitches Research Group
Application Deadline: 20/10/2021
