Current research projects

The VANGUARD project, which is funded by the European commission, aims to engineer bio-artificial pancreases to cure Type 1 Diabetes.

The goal of Dide’s PhD project is to identify, investigate and discuss ethical, psychological and social issues involved in conducting clinical trials and the clinical implementation of bio-artificial organs in general to ensure responsible innovation and clinical development for the treatment for patients with Type 1 Diabetes.
