An excellent final presentation about indoor pollution by Kristine Roy, Zachary Adams, and Thea Caplan WPI during their undergraduate project in the BioNanomaterials group AMI. Many thanks for the great work and enthusiasm.

Thanks to Prof. Carsten Ehrhardt for the opportunity to give a keynote on lung cell models at the 9th Pulmonary Drug Delivery (PDD) Workshop at TCD Pharmacy and for the exciting city tour Barbara Rothen AMI

Congratulations to Henry Lee for securing 2nd place in the 'Ma Thèse en 180 secondes' competition at Uni Fribourg MT180 Suisse! Henry presented his Ph.D. work financed by Schweizerischer Nationalfonds (SNF) about nanoparticle-macrophage interactions in just 3 minutes! #SciComm #PhD #Research

Thanks to the The Swiss FCS, two of our Ph.D. students headed to Geneva for a meaningful visit to the International Red Cross Museum and a guided walking tour of the city. Grateful for this incredible opportunity! #Swiss_FCS #RedCross #Geneva

Thanks to Swiss TPH for the invitation to share my experiences with the shared professorship.

We visited the HOBEL lab Dusan Licina Smart Living Lab at blueFACTORY Fribourg to exchange ongoing research Barbara Rothen ULTRHAS Project. Thanks for the exciting interaction; we look forward to your visit to AMI in January 2024.

We attended the 18th Swiss Aerossol Group Meeting this week where our postdoc Ruiwen He gave a presentation entitled “Monitoring diesel exhaust particles by lock-in thermography”.
Happy to be involved in such a group!

Congrats to our postdoc Ruiwen for being awarded with #SPARK grant from Swiss National Science Foundation 🙌
Proud of you!

What a great start of #CLINAM !

Our PhD student Isidora Loncarevic presents the あーるるるん project on in vitro - in vivo extrapolation within inhalation toxicology at the Swiss 3RCC Day in Lugano. Thanks Three Rivers Climate for bringing us together to discuss 3Rs challenges and advancements. #3Rs #AnimalResearch

Congratulations to our NCCR Bio-Inspired Materials PI Barbara Rothen-Rutishauser (@brothenrut, AMI_BioNano) for completing the 2023 H.I.T. (High Potential University Leaders Identity & Skills Training Program - Inclusive #Leadership in Academia) program! Well done! #EO

Viktoriya Ivasiv is a PhD student from ICVS and she will be a visiting PhD student in our lab during 1 year developing nanomaterials for lung cancer treatment. Her project was funded by Swiss National Science Foundation. Well-done and welcome Viktoriya!

We are happy to announce our new group leader Patricia Taladriz. She is coming from INL and she will work with nanoplastics and inorganic nanoparticles.
Excited to have you on board and welcome to our group! 🙌

Happy to see our two PhD students Maria Figueiras and Luigi Di Stolfo presenting their work in a poster presentation and our WINS fellow Flávia Sousa presenting an oral presentation at NCCR Bio-Inspired Materials conference.
There are currently 2 positions for WINS fellowship. Email us!

Today and tomorrow, our group is well represented at NCCR Bio-Inspired Materials annual center conference 2023 ☺️
We will have 1 oral presentation and 2 posters. Stay tuned! 🙌

Exciting poster presentation at #ISAMCongress2023 showcasing the power of simulating breathing motions in lung epithelial models. Thanks to our collaborator, Prof. Arti Ahluwalia DII - UniPisa CentroPiaggioUniPisa Università di Pisa, and ISAM International Society for Aerosols in Medicine for advancing respiratory research!
