The 45th parabolic flight campaign of @dlr-en.bsky.social & Novespace is starting! Our @uni-magdeburg.de are there!
Aboard is the CIRCULATION 1 experiment to test the functionality of the our #EUfunded magneto-acoustic bioprinter under microgravity conditions! 🧲 🔊 💗

Watch Bjorn Baselet’s presentation “Radiation resistance in space” from our summer school “Tissue Engineering & Space Medicine”! 🎬 🌌 ☢️
The 5-day event had expert lectures and Q&As on #SpaceHealth, radiation, bioengineering, and career opportunities with @esa.int.

Our @horizoneu.bsky.social team is working on solutions to implant-associated infections from a new perspective. 🦠✨
We are developing bio-hydrogels that, when applied on infections, transform bacteria into a source for producing beneficial proteins.

As our @horizoneu.bsky.social team readies our 3D bioprinter prototype for its first microgravity flight campaign, we can’t wait for our setup to join a future #ISS expedition! Crew will test our magneto-acoustic levitation system on building better cardiac models for space and earth health. 🧲 🔊
Expedition 73 at the International Space Station started doing cardiac research this week! 💓 Nasa flight engineers E. Michael Fincke and @jonnykimusa.bsky.social are using ultrasound devices to “identify signs of space-caused plaque buildup or accelerated aging-like symptoms in the arteries.”
Our #HorizonEU project is working on magneto-acoustic 3D bioprinting technologies to support human health on long-duration space missions — and to bring benefits back to healthcare on Earth. 🇪🇺
We will be in Bordeaux @dlr-en.bsky.social for a parabolic flight campaign organised by our partners at @uni-magdeburg.de through Novespace. 🤝
From 20–31 October, we will test our 3D bioprinter prototype in a #ZeroGravity flights campaign! 🛫🛬 It will be the first time our prototype will leave the lab to operate in flight — a huge step toward validating our technology for the International Space Station.

another busy day over in Warsaw for #Biofabrication2025.
here the summary of our fantastic day of talks 📊 and posters 📃
#ISBFWarsaw2025
It’s tomorrow! If you’re at Biofabrication 2025 and feel curious about new levitation approaches to 3D bio print better tissue models in microgravity, then go to Miguel J. S. Ferreira’s presentation at 11:30 CEST, session S22b.

In our @horizoneu.bsky.social project, Alix is #bioprinting of cardiac iPSC-derived 3D in vitro models using space environment as a tool to study aging.
Her team at @merln-um.bsky.social support our consortium develop a magneto-acoustic 3D bioprinter for Earth and Space applications.

Our project partner, Alix Lemaître gave a talk about her recent research on hydrogel screening at #ESB2025 last week! Congratulations 👏
She presented how to optimise “Natural Hydrogels to Support Cardiovascular Cell Culture: Towards Physiologically Relevant Human Cardiac Models.”
#CardiacModels
In session S22b “Bioprinting From Earth to Space” he will share how our team is developing magneto-acoustic levitation for biofabrication in microgravity, explore the principles behind this technique under Earth gravity, and explain how we are adapting our protocols for space mission scenarios.
Miguel Ferreira will present “PULSE - Magneto-acoustic 3D bioprinting onboard the International Space Station“ at session S22b “Bioprinting From Earth to Space” next Wednesday 17 September at 11:30 CEST
Miguel Ferreira, our partner from ICE Cubes Service will present our @horizoneu.bsky.social project and results next week at #Biofabrication2025 in Warsaw! 🇵🇱
Look for “PULSE - Magneto-acoustic 3D bioprinting onboard the International Space Station“ next Wednesday 17 September at 11:30 CEST.
Our @horizoneu.bsky.social project partner, Mariangela Clemente, presented her poster at ESB 2025! It showcased recent work on multicompartmental Janus Liposomes, which have distinct hemispheres that interact with bacteria and hydrogels. 🌗 Congratulations! 🙌

Only 3 days left and we'll also be in Warsaw🇵🇱 for #Biofabrication2025!
Here all our contributions from @uni-wuerzburg.de, presenting many of our #meltelectrowriting and #bioprinting projects.
🌟Can't wait to see you all there!🌟
Our team — funded by @horizoneu.bsky.social — is developing magneto-acoustic levitation systems to create complex cardiac models in space - studying both astronaut health and Earth-based radiation treatments.
Bjorn is a radiobiologist and space health researcher at SCK CEN, exploring how ionizing radiation and spaceflight conditions affect human biology. He is an educator, mentor, and science communicator committed to bridging research and public engagement! 📣
More recordings now available from our online summer school “Tissue engineering applications for space medicine”! Today we have “Radiation resistance in space” by Bjorn Baselet. 📽️
Watch his presentation at pulse-eic.eu/bjorn-basele...
