Yesterday, we started our #NOCI Troppo Breve meeting with the opening talk by @MummeryLab. In the next days, we will be sharing the latest results on organs-on-chip from the different partners of the consortium and discuss possible collaborations.
#NOCI #OoC #organonachip

We’re ready for two days of practical training at the @UTwente. First talk from @andriesvdm on OoC, standards and open technology platforms!

We want to introduce our new #NOCI member Maurits Unkel from ErasmusMC, supervised by Steven Kushner and @F_deVrij. Maurits will work on bioinformatic analysis of the Brain & OoC

Want to know more about his research?:

How should you pitch your research? At this NOCI retreat its all about this. Today practice sessions with feedback from professionals. Curious for the final pitches tomorrow!

That concludes the conference.

Thank you @euroocs, we had a blast!
Hope to see you all again next year in Berlin.
#EUROoCS2022

That was the afternoon of #EUROoCS2022, with presentation by #NOCI PhDs @MoerkensRenee, Paul Motreuil, and José Manuel Rivera Arbeláez where they presented the most recent results on their projects in Organ-on-chip.

Amazing!!
Two winning NOCI PhD students for the best Oral Talks award #EUROoCS2022.
Congratulations @MoerkensRenee & @LenaSophieKoch!

Fantastic!! Congratulation to NOCI PhD student Michael Hu for winning one of the best poster awards! #EUROoCS2022

Standardization! The way forward at #EUROoCS2022 conference by @andriesvdm

First NOCI talk kicked off by Milica Dostanic about “tapered pillars increasing tissue position reproducibility in engineering heart tissue platforms”
#EUROoCS2022 @euroocs

Everyone dripping in. #EUROoCS2022 is almost starting! @euroocs

The day before EUROoCS 2022. We’re looking forward to meet you all again and to talk Organ-on-Chip science! Safe travels everyone and see you tomorrow. #Grenoble #OoC #EUROoCS2022

Our #NOCI PI Dr. Clémentine Boutry, assistant professor at Technische Universiteit Delft, shares her passion and fascination for biodegradable materials. She highlights the possibilities for the #OoC field!

Your own cells as a medical treatment?

Today we were at the Regenerative Medicine Day at @leiden2022 to represent the Organ-on-Chip technology with @hdmt_technology. A really interested audience and really interesting conversation!

Currently ongoing: Our #NOCI Troppo Breve meeting in the Belgium Ardennes. We’re happy to be back to a F2F meeting with all the PIs, postdocs & PhDs.
Exciting to be discussing the achievements of the last 5 years and to look ahead on the next 5 years!

A NOCI PhD journey between organoids and organs-on-chips

Written by NOCI trainee @JensPuschhof on his journey involving complex organoid systems, the NOCI consortium and collaborations. And how he is continuing his journey with Organs-On-Chips.

"With all the expertise that comes together in NOCI, I think there are great times ahead".

Erasmus Associate Professor Femke de Vrij talks about her journey towards Brain-on-Chip research and her current work in the #NOCI-blog: https://noci-organ-on-chip.nl/brains-on-chips-boc/. #neurons #brain #chip

A dive into… the blood vessel!

NOCI PostDoc @Ttk08421685 'Dives' into the bloodstream and shows us what it's like there for her research

The word is out!
We've received a Positive Evaluation of the NOCI Program, meaning funding for NOCI will be continued for a second term of 5 years!
