The focus of our research is to understand the physical mechanisms influencing bacterial surface colonization and biofilm formation in fluids. We use a combination of microfluidics and visualization techniques to access the microstructure and the rheology of bacterial systems, with the ultimate goal of linking their structure to their biological function.
July 2024 - We are hiring!! Exciting PhD Opportunities at ETH Zurich! The bioMatter Microfluidics group (Eleonora Secchi, D-BAUG) and the SoftMat Group (Jan Vermant, D-MATL) at ETH Zürich are excited to announce two collaborative PhD projects within the BIOMAC-BP consortium, funded by Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Doctoral Networks HORIZON-MSCA-2023.For more information
