1. Fully Funded PhD
Summary of Funded PhD Program
The lab has recently granted funding from the Swiss National Science Foundation. The 4 years project will deal with the identification of biological mechanisms driving the formation and progression of metastases in presence of aging blood vessels with the final goal of identifying translational opportunities to block this process. The project involves the biofabrication of 3D microvascular networks (main focus on the blood brain barrier), their integration with high-throughput culture systems and the analysis of blood vessel-cancer cell interaction through multiple next-gen sequencing techniques and high-content screening.
