With my Biomimetic Microsystems(BioMIC) Research Group,I had the opportunity to attend the Organ-on-a-chip MasterClass for bioengineers organized by ODTÜ MEMS Merkezi and AZAR Innovations in Ankara last week. In this MasterClass, our wonderful trainers Dr. Hossein Eslami Amirabadi and Dr. Oscar S. shared with us in detail their experiences so far. The workshop offered an enriching experience for all of us, featuring: •Interactive digital lectures •Organ-on-a-Chip Challenge to design your own chip assay, from problem to solution and from a rough idea to a concrete plan fit for purpose •In-depth insights with experts •Hands-on sessions with different commercial chips and their corresponding pumps to gain first-hand experience •Great networking opportunities with researchers from different fields Special thanks to Dr. Ender Yıldırım for organizing this event and to Prof. Dr. Ozlem YESIL CELIKTAS for supporting my participation.

🌸 I was very pleased to participate in an Organ-on-a-chip MasterClass specifically for bioengineers that was organized by Project OrChESTRA, ODTÜ MEMS Merkezi and AZAR Innovations, in Ankara Turkiye last week with my Biomimetic Microsystems(BioMIC) Research Group colleagues. 👩🏫 During this MasterClass, our trainers were Dr. Hossein Eslami Amirabadi and Dr. Oscar S.. 👩🎓 The workshop offered an enriching experience for all of us, featuring: * Interactive on-side and digital lectures, and in-depth insights with expert views by Dr. Hans Wyss, Dr. Hossein Eslami Amirabadi and Dr. Oscar Stassen. * Organ-on-a-chip challenge to design, plan and present our own chip assay, from problem to solution, and from a rough idea to a concrete plan that is fit for purpose, * Hands-on session with several types of chips and pumps to get familiar with, * Commercial session provided by microfluidic ChipShop GmbH, * Networking and having fun with great people! Specific thanks to Dr. Ender Yıldırım and Prof. Dr. Ozlem YESIL CELIKTAS for giving us this opportunity. 👩⚕️ 🙈 Organ-on-chips and organoids for animal free science!!!

🌟 Last week, our company had the pleasure of participating online in a workshop organized by AZAR Innovations at ODTÜ MEMS Merkezi in Turkey We introduced our organ-on-a-chip technology to the participants, providing hands-on experience with our chips and offering technical consultation through our cell culture experts online. The workshop offered an enriching experience for all involved, featuring: 📚 Interactive digital lectures 🧠 Organ-on-a-Chip Challenge to design your own chip assay, from problem to solution, and from a rough idea to a concrete plan that is fit for purpose 🧐 In-depth insights with experts 🛠️ Hands-on sessions with different types of chips and pumps to gain first-hand experience 💼 Commercial session 🔍 Showcase table with available organ-on-a-chip solutions in the field 🤝 Networking and having fun with great people! Find more information here: https://lnkd.in/dxFsdWUk We greatly enjoyed contributing to this Master Class. Special thanks to Dr. Hossein Eslami Amirabadi for hosting. We look forward to the next events! 🙌 #OrganOnAChip #Microfluidics #Biotech #Innovation #Workshop #Networking #Science #Technology #Training #AZARInnovations #OrChESTRA

Today is the last day of the 2 masterclasses that we have organized in ODTÜ MEMS Merkezi in Türkiye together with AZAR Innovations and Project OrChESTRA. Stay up to date for upcoming trainings:https://lnkd.in/dxFsdWUk We enjoyed helping biologists and bioengineers to adapt the beautiful technology of organ on a chip. In case you missed: we provided together with the amazing participants, our trainers Dr. Hossein Eslami Amirabadi, Dr. Oscar S. and Dr. Meltem Okan Aydın, PhD: - Interactive digital lectures  - Organ on a chip Challenge to design your own chip assay, from problem to solution and from a rough idea to concrete plan that is fit for purpose - In-depth insights with expert views from Dr. Pelin Candarlioglu Deacon, Dr. Oscar S., Dr. Hans Wyss and Dr. Vania Silverio, Ph.D. - Hands-on session with different types of chips and pumps to gain first-handed experience - Commercial session provided by microfluidic ChipShop GmbH - Showcase table with available organ on a chip solutions in the field - Networking and having fun with great people! This event was made possible by a great team including hero’s from ODTÜ MEMS Merkezi: Dr. Hans Wyss, Pinar Demirekler Burat, Gamze Kozanoglu, and Dr. Ender Yıldırım. We greatly enjoyed preparing for these MasterClasses and helping scientist to adopt organ on a chip technology in an efficient way. Interested in organising a training at your location? Do not hesitate to contact us and remember to follow us for upcoming events!

Yesterday we wrapped up our Organ on a chip MasterClass organized by Project OrChESTRA and AZAR Innovations for biologists and today we start with another one at ODTÜ MEMS Merkezi. However this time our participants are mainly bioengineers! Curious? Visit: https://lnkd.in/dxFsdWUk This also reflects the field of organ on a chip, where on the one hand we have biologists that want to apply the technology and on the other hand engineers that want to develop it. One of our main goals is to bridge these two fields. One great way to achieve this is education! During the coming days we will have: - Interactive lectures - Organ on a chip Challenge to design your own chip assay - Expert views by Dr. Hans Wyss and Dr. Vania Silverio, Ph.D. - Hands-on session with several types of chips and pumps to get familiar with - Commercial session provided by microfluidic ChipShop GmbH - And much more! Curious for more? Visit our website to see how we enable biologists to apply organ on a chip in their research!

Goodmorning from the beautiful city of Ankara in Türkiye!  Project OrChESTRA and AZAR Innovations will organize two Organ on a chip MasterClasses this week, one for biologists as usual and one specifically for bioengineers. Curious for this and following MasterClasses? Check out our website: https://lnkd.in/dxFsdWUk During these two MasterClasses we will help you kick-start your research with organ on a chip by: - Interactive lectures - Organ on a chip Challenge to design your own chip assay - Expert views by Dr. Pelin Candarlioglu Deacon, dr. Oscar S., Dr. Hans Wyss and Dr. Vania Silverio, Ph.D. - Hands-on session with several types of chips and pumps to get familiar with - Commercial session provided by microfluidic ChipShop GmbH - And much more including lots of fun! Our trainers are Dr. Hossein Eslami Amirabadi and Dr. Oscar S. Are you curious to how we can help you to adapt organ on a chip technology in your research?

Last week, our CEO Martin Raasch joined AZAR Innovations for their Organ-on-Chip Masterclass in Amsterdam! The focus was on intestine-on-chip models, including gut and microbiome interaction. Big shout out to Hossein Eslami Amirabadi for inviting us to join. We were excited to showcase our technology to all the participants. #DynamicOrgan #Organonchip
