BiS is part of the Biomedical Engineering Department at TU/e. Research at BiS is dedicated to understanding and applying basic cell biological principles at the biointerfaces especially for regenerative medicine. The research program is characterized by a holistic approach to both discovery and application, aiming at combining high throughput technologies, computational modeling and experimental cell biology to streamline the wealth of biological knowledge to real clinical applications.
Cell biology, computational approaches, and material development are the three key fields of science that we focus our research on at BiS. To find out more, have a look here:

BiS and the Platform for Therapeutic Biomaterials Discovery are hosting Prof. dr. Henny Beckers to give a seminar about 'Modernizing glucoma Surgery: The SEAMS and ISEA projects' on Thursday, 30th, January at Ceres 1.26. Henny is an eye surgeon at Maastricht UMC specialized in glaucoma surgery. She can talk contagiously enthusiastic about surgical challenges related to glaucoma shunt devices and bridges the gap between clinical problems to engineering solutions.
