Laboratory Technician at the Research Group Biosensors for Bioengineering


Application Deadline: 15/10/2020
Ref: LTII-IM

The The Biosensors for Bioengineering Group group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a laboratory technician to work on the development of radiofrequency coils for magnetic resonance to study metabolism on tissue engineered organ-on-a-chip systems.

The contract will be within the framework of the EU FET Open project “Benchtop NMR spectrometer for lab-on-a-chip” (https://blocproject.eu), whose objective is the development of non-invasive assays based on hyperpolarized magnetic resonance (MR) to study real-time metabolism on tissue engineered organ-on-a-chip systems.

Laboratory Technician at the Research Group Biosensors for Bioengineering


Application Deadline: 30/09/2020
Ref: LT-IM

The The Biosensors for Bioengineering Group group at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) is looking for a laboratory technician to work on the development of magnetic resonance tools to study metabolism on cell cultures and tissue engineered organ-on-a-chip systems. As part of our efforts to create a platform for tailored drug testing, the successful candidate will be involved in the technical development of Carbon-13 hyperpolarization methods, as well as carrying out work on the cell culture and tissue engineering side of the project.

This multidisciplinary project is at the interface between physics, chemistry, biochemistry and tissue engineering.

Back to school, back to the lab!

The holidays are over and it’s time to go back to work, also for our youngest and curious minds of the students that visit us every year. Despite the situation we are experiencing due to the coronavirus outbreak, at the Institute for Bioengineering of Catalonia (IBEC) we are making an effort to resume some of our outreach activities in person.

In this sense, the IBEC laboratories have reopened the doors for the students participating in the “Bojos per la Bioenginyeria” and the “Batx2Lab” programs, adapting to this “new normality”.

A new method to find the best treatment for pediatric cancer

A study led by researchers from the Nanobioengineering Group at IBEC, in collaboration with other research centers and hospitals in Barcelona, ​​uses a predictive biomarker to anticipate the success of drugs against rhabdomyosarcoma, which represents around 5 percent of childhood tumors . This advance can help in predicting treatment efficiency thus, avoiding tumor resistance and decreasing undesired secondary effects.

New method could help to find the best treatment for a pediatric cancer

A study led by IBEC researchers from the Nanobioengineering group, uses a functional predictive biomarker to anticipate the effect of treatments against rhabdomyosarcoma, the most common soft-tissue cancer affecting childhood and adolescence.

This advance can help in predicting treatment efficiency thus, avoiding tumor resistance and decreasing undesired secondary effects.
