Episode 12: Talking to Thomas Mortelmans about Nanofluidic Devices for research in Neurodegenerative Diseases

Thomas Mortelmans is a PhD student with a passion for Polymers. He talks about how he combines various scientific fields and state-of-the-art nanofabrication techniques for bio-medically relevant applications. He is working on the development of a nanofluidic device, which would be capable of interpreting pathophysiological mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases. The project is a collaboration between the Laboratory of Micro-and Nanotechnology (LMN) at the Paul Scherrer Institute and the Center for Cellular Imaging and NanoAnalytics (C-CINA) at the University of Basel.

He also created his own Gin, inspired by his scientific. It is available in Belgium and is known as ‘Cloudy Gins', All IncMist. You can have a look by following this link:
