    • Laboratories

    The research group Cardiovascular Biomechanics has two laboratories:

    New project: Artificial Womb

    Researchers of TU/e and partners aim to develop an artificial womb, which is an adequate substitute for the protective environment of the maternal womb in case of premature birth, preventing health complications.

    Student opportunities

    The Cardiovascular Biomechanics group provides courses and projects in the bachelor's and master's program.
    Furthermore, there are always sufficient projects for students to work on in the research group.
