In his dissertation, he investigated how artificial intelligence (AI) can help intensive care physicians recognize patient deterioration earlier and support better-informed treatment decisions. ]]> /en/news-and-events/news-overview/15-09-2026-how-mechanical-signals-shape-blood-vessel-growth /en/news-and-events/news-overview/15-09-2026-how-mechanical-signals-shape-blood-vessel-growth Tue, 15 Sep 2026 12:30:00 +0200 Margot Passier earned her PhD on September 15, 2026, from the Department of Biomedical Engineering (BmE) at Eindhoven University of Technology (ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø). As part of Professor Sandra Loerakker's Modeling in Mechanobiology research group, she investigated how mechanical signals in a cell's environment influence the formation of new blood vessels. ]]> /en/news-and-events/news-overview/09-09-2026-new-healthholland-funded-project-aims-to-improve-diagnosis-of-hidden-heart-disease /en/news-and-events/news-overview/09-09-2026-new-healthholland-funded-project-aims-to-improve-diagnosis-of-hidden-heart-disease Wed, 09 Sep 2026 11:05:00 +0200 The Department of Biomedical Engineering (BmE) has secured funding for AutoCMD (Automated non-invasive diagnosis of coronary microvascular disease), a new research project led by Cian Scannell in collaboration with Philips Medical Systems Nederland. ]]> /en/news-and-events/news-overview/02-09-2026-living-heart-valves-that-can-grow-with-patients /en/news-and-events/news-overview/02-09-2026-living-heart-valves-that-can-grow-with-patients Wed, 02 Sep 2026 15:00:00 +0200 On September 2, 2026, Valentine Vetter earned her PhD in Biomedical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology (ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø). In her dissertation, Designing and Evaluating Next Generation Scaffold-based Strategies for in situ Heart Valve Tissue Engineering, she explored new heart valve designs that can be gradually transformed by the body into living tissue. ]]> /en/news-and-events/news-overview/31-08-2026-three-microscopes-in-one-nanolights-reveals-hidden-differences-between-nanoparticles /en/news-and-events/news-overview/31-08-2026-three-microscopes-in-one-nanolights-reveals-hidden-differences-between-nanoparticles Mon, 31 Aug 2026 10:00:00 +0200 ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø researchers Lorenzo Albertazzi (Biomedical Engineering) and Peter Zijlstra (Applied Physics and Science Education) have received a €950,000 NWO Open Technology Programme grant to develop NanoLights. With additional contributions from industry partners, the total project funding amounts to €1.2 million. Over the course of four years, the researchers will develop a new optical instrument that can investigate nanoparticles using multiple complementary techniques simultaneously. ]]> /en/news-and-events/news-overview/28-08-2026-superfast-sti-test-thanks-to-bioluminescent-shrimp /en/news-and-events/news-overview/28-08-2026-superfast-sti-test-thanks-to-bioluminescent-shrimp Fri, 28 Aug 2026 07:13:00 +0200 Two thousand meters below the surface of the ocean, a shrimp escapes a predator by shooting out a burst of bright blue light. At that same moment, a general practitioner in Eindhoven reads the result of a glow-in-the-dark STI test. These seemingly unrelated events are connected by remarkable proteins called luciferases. Researchers from the Department of Biomedical Engineering are deploying this bioluminescent molecule in the global fight against infectious diseases. ]]>
