TNW-BET-DBE

Marieke Meteling studied Biomedical Engineering at the University of Twente, starting in 2014. After obtaining her bachelorā€™s degree in 2017, she continued with the master programme at the University of Twente, specialising inĀ Bionanotechnology and Advanced Biomanufacturing. During her internship at the Molecular Cell Biology group at Sahlgrenska Academy, Sweden, she studied the chondrogenesis of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) under different culture conditions.Ā Her master thesis focused on elucidating the mechanism behind microaggregate shrinkage. In December 2019 she graduated Cum Laude at the Developmental BioEngineering group of the University of Twente.

In March 2020 she started her PhD in the Developmental BioEngineering group under the supervision of dr. Jeroen Leijten. Her project focussed on elucidating the effect of the 3D cellular microenvironment on cell behaviour.Ā 

Since April 2024 she works as a Postdoc on the LoaD project (NWA-NWO) under the shared supervision of Gijsje Koenderink (TU Delft), Gerjo van Osch (Erasmus MC) and Jeroen Leijten (UT). Her project focusses on studying the influence of the mechanical microenvironment onĀ cell behaviour of chondrocytes in healthy and osteoarthritic cartilage. By engineering small microniches for single cells, she studies the cell behaviour on the single cell level.Ā
