About Me
I am an entrepreneurial biomedical engineer with a strong background in microfluidics, material engineering, and microencapsulation. I have gained vast experience in leveraging droplet microfluidics and hydrogel technology for (single) cell encapsulation and 3D (stem) cell culture. Furthermore, I have an interdisciplinary focus and an outspoken interest in pioneering and upscaling micromanufacturing and biofabrication processes.
