The possibilities at Glasgow Microelectronics 🏴🇪🇺🇬🇧 are only limited by one’s imagination. Thank you, Prof Hadi Heidari, for hosting me during the visit, and I cannot wait to explore some of those possibilities across campuses.

A big thank you to @JGjanegreen, Dr Sarah E. Bennett, SEDSConnective, Dr Catherine Crompton, Sinead Rhodes and Kimia Witte for all of their advice and support with this section of the #TranslatingResearchIntoChange report! Read here: books.ed.ac.uk/edinburgh-diam…




Ema Strakova, an artist and first-year biomedical engineering undergraduate student at Biomed Engineering, joined us for her summer placement to design, 3D print, and test her own microfluidic devices. 🤓



Excited to join the latest cohort Young Academy of Scotland : )

A braw meal at the Bothy with some of the most exciting brains in British psychiatry @ProfMinnis & BendyBrain: Dr Jessica Eccles

As a bioengineer, it was an insightful experience to be invited to PharmaTech Integrates 2024, in collaboration with National Manufacturing Institute Scotland and CPI, to join a panel discussion on the oligonucleotide and peptide revolution, and its impact on patients, the NHS, and the UK economy.


The beautiful PhDs are inspiring the new cohort of Biomed Engineering MSc students with playful bioengineering, exploring the fundamental biophysics of living cells and its applied translation in the nervous system for regenerative medicine, disease modeling, and drug discovery.



Thank you to @morenorse, the only one I know who could beautifully sketch my fast-paced talk, ‘From Bone to Brain via Cartilage: Becoming More Cell-Agnostic’, at the CeMi seminar Centre for the Cellular Microenvironment.


To develop brain vascular organoid models, we need brains—and our new PhD student, Nerea Nerea Caro, with her beautiful brain, will help us create them using stem cells.
