Ceri-Anne SuurmondIn 2014 I started my bachelor of Biomedical Engineering here at the University of Twente. For my minor I studied for half a year at the University of Melbourne, during which I took courses for neurochemistry and pharmacology. During my bachelor thesis I worked on comprehending and improving the spraying process of cells, a basic form of bioprinting. After a successful defense I obtained my bachelor degree in January 2018. After this I started my Master's degree at the University of Twente in the track Bioengineering Technologies. For my master internship I worked at the Ali Khademhosseini lab at UCLA on a liver-on-a-chip. Now at the DBE research group I will work on 3D stem cell organoids under the supervision of dr. J.C.H. Leijten and S.R. van Loo.

Declan GrewcockIn 2013, Declan began studying a Biological Science (Microbiology) BSc degree at the University of Leicester. As part of this 4-year degree he took a year in industry at the University of Algarve, Portugal, characterising the microbiota of citrus trees in an Algarve orchard with a view to identify the presence (or lack of) devastating citrus disease Huanglongbing (HLB). In addition, his final year project focused on studying how circumsporozoite protein of malaria sporozoites inhibit the alternative pathway of the complement system. In 2017. Declan began his PhD at the University of Nottingham, focusing on using circular mRNA with an infinite open reading to produce therapeutic peptide concatemer prodrugs. In 2019, he began a secondment at Hy2Care, aiming to forward research in bioprinting using hydrogels with living cells for the purpose of cartilage tissue engineering.
