Droplet-based microfluidics for biological and environmental applications

The PhD candidate will join the 5-year EcoDropLab project, developing sustainable droplet-based microfluidics platforms for biological and environmental research, especially microplastic-related microbial processes. Research includes bacterial aggregation, biofilms, antimicrobial resistance, and screening antimicrobial compounds using microfluidics, lab-on-a-chip systems, microscopy, and materials science in an interdisciplinary, international environment.

The PhD candidate will join the 5-year EcoDropLab project, which focuses on developing a sustainable and accessible droplet-based microfluidics platform for biological and environmental research, with a particular focus on microplastic-related microbial processes. This includes studying how microplastics influence bacterial aggregation, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial resistance, as well as enabling screening of antimicrobi...
