cBITE is part of the MERLN Institute for Technology-Inspired Regenerative Medicine at Maastricht University. Research at cBITE is dedicated to understanding and applying basic cell biological principles in the field of biomedical engineering. 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 cBITE. To find out more, have a look here:
