Making organ transplants more accessible. In a nutshell - that's the goal. Artificial blood made with nanoparticles and the machine which simulates the body keeping organ alive for hours, weeks, months. That would be awesome! This (more less) is what NanoGroup S.A. with Prof. Tomasz Ciach started many years ago. Continuing painstaking research making it bigger-than-life mission Wojciech Frąckowiak is leading the team of young and ambitious researchers to make this vision true. A4BEE joined the quest helping with moving invention towards innovation. From R&D towards medical product. From research towards global commercial availability. We are just starting, but the journey is already rewarding. This week together with Julia Zakrzewska, Maciej Gaik we were presenting the #nanOX system commercialization journey during internanopoland conference. Spreading the word about polish science and engineering ingenuity. Keep your fingers crossed as we are on a mission to transform transplantology. #meaningfulInnovation #invetion #innovation

🌟 Exciting Research Collaboration Alert! 🌟 We are glad to announce that Simão Santos from Lammertyn lab ( Department of Biosystems ) started a 3-month research stay at the Interfibio group under the supervision of Dr. Ciara O' Sullivan and Dr. Vasoula Skouridou. During this period, Simão will be working on groundbreaking projects to develop RPA assays and nucleic acid-based lateral flow assays (NALFA) aimed at detecting female-specific genes in allantoic fluid. His work will focus on: 🔬 Optimizing RPA reaction parameters 🔬Designing tailed primers for NALFA 🔬 Refining the assay to work with minimal sample and buffer volumes Once fully developed, the NALFA will “suit like a glove” the SIMPLE microfluidic chip Simão has been developing during his PhD, paving the way for a fully autonomous microfluidic platform for in ovo sexing. We are excited to see the innovative advancements that will come from this collaboration. Best of luck, Simão! 🚀 #Research #Innovation #Collaboration #Microfluidics #Biotechnology #InOvoSexing

Behind the scenes - the foundation story of 2bind and NanoTemper Technologies‘ role in it.   Way back in 2008, NanoTemper Technologies unleashed a powerful biophysical tool: MicroScale Thermophoresis (MST, or TRIC as it is called now). This incredible tech let scientists detect molecular interactions fast, precise, reliable and in solution.   But here's the twist: not everyone could own this cutting-edge instrument. Recognizing the need for broader accessibility, in 2011, 2bind was born, as spin-off from NanoTemper and in partnership with Gernot Längst from the University of Regensburg. The new CEO Thomas Schubert's mission: give people access to biophysical tools.   There is the need for instruments and there is the need for services.   While NanoTemper focused on crafting high-quality instruments, 2bind provided top-notch biophysical analytical services.   This idea worked well!   The synergy propelled 2bind into a hub of biophysics expertise. In 2016, NanoTemper stepped back, allowing us to thrive independently. In 2017, I joined as Chief of Operations and together we brought over 20 skilled scientists to the team as well as a compelling toolkit of 13 biophysical technologies, not just the suite of NanoTemper Technologies (PANTA, Tycho, nanoDSF, Dianthus, MST/TRIC), but other great formats from Dynamic Biosensors, Malvern Panalytical (Creoptix), Sartorius, and others. A large and diverse set of assay formats now allows us to operate fully results-driven and provide customized biophysical solutions to support our clients' drug discovery and other development programs.   We are happy about the valuable technology and testing partnership between 2bind and NanoTemper Technologies. And thanks to Philipp for his recent visit - as always, a pleasure to have you here!   #biophysics #molecularinteractions #innovation #partnerships

We're absolutely thrilled to see the arrival of a first-in-class instrument at the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) – a device capable of taking rapid and sensitive luminescence reads with PCR heat block thermal control. Finally, we have a dedicated instrument to enable our real-time cellular thermal shift assay (RT-CETSA) and enable it's use in target-ligand interaction assays in early-stage drug discovery pipelines. We're excited about the potential discoveries and improvements to the drug development process this technology will bring. You can see our paper detailing the method here: https://lnkd.in/eB_UMu8R A huge thank you to everyone on the team who made this possible, especially the team at Arimation Robotics for creating this streamlined machine. Also thankful to the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) Advancing Innovation through Mentorship program for providing the training and platform to identify this unmet need for instrumentation. I cannot wait to see what comes next 🙌 #CETSA #innovation #LabEquipment #science #drugdiscovery #drugdevelopment

We are very proud to announce that Beonchip is joining the UNLOOC Chips JU Project, a significant European initiative focused on advancing organ-on-chip technology. With over 30 organizations involved, Beonchip is proud to lead User Case 4, where we will develop an Organ-on-Chip platform and create a blood-brain barrier (BBB) model, unlocking new opportunities for studying neurodegenerative diseases. This innovative system integrates fluidic control, sensing, and incubation into a single device, providing all the essential elements in one platform. The BBB model will be validated with known permeable drugs, making it a powerful tool for biomedical research laboratories and scalable for contract research organizations (CROs). This project marks an important step toward making organ-on-chip technology more robust and user-friendly, breaking down barriers in this cutting-edge field."
